'we' (as in 'we' of the openSUSE Community) don't really know what the
future holds..

but, it _seems_ to me that there has been a sharp drop off of Novell
employees contributing/posting to the mail lists/forums since the
NYPost scoop..

i wonder what happens if (as has happened too often in recent weeks)
the forum (or mail lists/irc/wiki/etc) machines/nets need TLC to
return to work...

do 'we' have non-Novell community hands with access to the levers and
gears controlling our ability to coordinate, communicate, and etc?

just thinking out loud: do 'we' need to make some backup plans
_before_ the communications networks go down and _then_ learn our
corporate sponsor has lost interest in 'we' and has decided to save
those man hours for more profitable endeavors ??

i know it is unpopular with some, but maybe 'we' could cobble together
some backup comm via everyone's friend, whose name begins with a big
blue G ??

just sayin': its easier to plan a backup while the lights are still on.
