No, that's not "official" either. None of the Novell/suse employees write here in any official capacity. Some do so in their free time and even from home.
They have, of course, knowledge and information from inside, but they don't represent the official opinion/say of the company.
You know this for a fact, do you?
As far as I am concerned, if I see in the sender's address a reference to Novell or openSUSE then the response comes officially from an employee of Novell/openSUSE.
If the response is NOT from someone connected with Novell/openSUSE then there *must* be a disclaimer to indicate same.
If the response *is* from someone in Novell/openSUSE but reflects only their *personal* view/opinion then the poster must specifically mention this (as I have seen at least one person from Novell/openSUSE stipulate in his/her posting).
You are very, very, very stupid. It's been a long time that I have read such garbage on the Net. *PLONK* SUSE/Novell folks, just put him in your KILL files. Don't let yourself be taken off your valuable contributions by such brain-dead comments.

Thanks, Joachim. I was waiting a few days to calm down before I responded to this silly string of messages (even now, I had to backspace over some maybe excessive expressions). Thank you very, very much, suse and Novell employees, for all your help with what we linux fans have to go through to maintain a good environment for our computer and network work and play. I, and I'm sure everyone else except a few fools like Basil, appreciate your letting us know that you care enough about suse and its users to give us all this _informal_, _unofficial_ help. And I'm pretty sure I recall having read that, at least in the US, the disclaimers have no legal effect -- they exist only to make the less knowledgeable lawyers feel better. A possibly official violation of law will not be protected by a disclaimer, and an accidental error in fact or judgment in an apparently unofficial email will not be exposed to _legitimate_ legal action by the lack of one. David Rankin -- maybe you could shed some real light? Even if any of us were childish enough to try it. John Perry (Happy user, and 3 times paid happy customer of suse 5.1, 7.1, 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and now 11.0.)
