Hi all,
I'm a member of ja-OWN team so I have read this
thread with deep interest, but little bit difficult
to something to say in my English.
However, please let me say little words.
Here's my really personal feeling, forgive me.
It's so sad to read the Henne's mail.
Yes, I had choose to contribute OWN myself, it's
my decision. So I should take some risk with the
decision.
But getting sued and in the court is too high
risk than I ever thought. In openSUSE community,
contributors are not fellows? No one save me
if I'll be in such situation?
Everyone knows a basic point of risk management.
We have to consider two factors of risk:
possibility and threat.
If possibility is very low (0.01%) but threat is
really serious, we shouldn't do, So in this case,
I have to quit to translate current "risky" OWN.
Of course ja-team can make another OWN, but...
Anyway, sorry, I have never used openSUSE.
I always use Ubuntu and Oracle Solaris (it might
be overwritten by OpenIndiana).
So, why I'm in ja-OWN team?
Because I love "freedom of choice."
I'm happy with good distros/OSes, good developers
and good communities.
I had thought openSUSE might be one of good distro
and community. so I had wanted to contribute.
I had believed such contribution let us success of
whole of Linux.
But right now, I can't trust your community is
really "good" to spend my spare time with legal
risks.
I hope openSUSE community is worth to spare my
time, but ATM I need a time to think.
Thanks, and sorry about bad English ;)
