Given the various emails I have received. I think it is time we had a name for our initiative.
Wow, I don't like any of those. What's wrong with openSLE ?
Orignally, I wanted openSLE or openSLES. The problem comes with Trademarks. I think the naming of CentOS reflects the issues with choosing something. I want to avoid problems that could/would appear if we used the name. Emails I have had from various places have shown that we need a new name for the initiative.
I'd like to see proof there's a trademark on "SLE".
Also I would like to avoid confussion. I still remember all the problems with SUSE Linux and SuSE Enterpise Linux. I may have the names wrong in my memory. I just know that I had people often not buy the correct one. There always was a lot of confussion between the two. The name may have had Professional in it. I really want people getting what they want because it is a clear difference.
How about S.I.N.S ?
SINS Is Not SLE......
S.O.S Sane OpenSuse Though I thought we were forming an advocacy / interest / lobbying group to give weight to wishes so that opensuse or sles remains a practical base for vars to to build on, not a new spin-off distribution. -- bkw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
