German  banks and insurance  companies interested in implementing open
source Linux  in  their  operations can click    to a new  portal  for
information about products, suppliers, applications and more.

Hewlett-Packard, Novell (Profile, Products, Articles), and Red Hat are
teaming on a new  Linux financial Web  site -- www.linux-versiba.de --
which the companies plan to launch on April 13, they said Wednesday in
a joint statement. The site will be managed by Germany's Institute for
Information Technology at the University of Mannheim.

"VersiBa is a central platform where banks and insurance companies can
receive  in-depth information  about  the  Linux operating system  and
applications running on Linux,  including those developed specifically
for   the financial  sector,   as  well   as  Linux-based office   and
communication  software  offerings   from Novell,   Red  Hat (Profile,
Products, Articles), and numerous other independent software vendors,"
said Marina Walser, marketing director at Novell's German subsidiary.
