Sure, as its the right of everybody else to object how Sascha does it :)

There are trademark guidelines in effect now. You can read them at

And everybody agrees with that in general. However this isn't the issue
everybody has with this move.

People tell you that they don't like Sascha or anyone else to push
things into open-slx.de infrastructure and away from opensuse.org
infrastructure. You never once address this specific concern in any way,
you simply ignore it. Until you somehow address this issue either with
talking about it or doing something about it, you will continue to
receive criticisms.
