Thank you for saying this. This has got to be the 10th time that Lubos has gone decrying bias in the current choice. Imagine taking this form around to 20 people:
Please choose one or more of these two, both excellent, choices: [ ] Choice A [ ] Choice B
Ask the people whether the form is biased towards A, B, or neither.
Please choose what do you want to do with the following items: - Apple: [x] eat it [ ] look at it [ ] throw it away - Trousers [x] wear it [ ] wash it [ ] iron it - Car [ ] sell it [ ] drive it [ ] repair it Is it really that hard to see that the last one is different? Is that really that hard to see that some people, since it is different from the other choices, might see it for example as an advertisement for a car reseller company?
There is *no* bias in this kind of a choice except what some readers map onto it themselves because of the openSUSE backstory that new users won't know about anyway.
There is not a single reference to the past in my previous mail. What can be seen as not right is happening now. -- Lubos Lunak KDE developer -------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: l.lunak@suse.cz , l.lunak@kde.org Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 972 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
