Well if the community is unhappy with the services provided by Novell and the other sponsors, we can look for money somewhere else. If you have ideas on how to provide about a 100.000 worth of bandwith, diskspace and computing power a year, I'm sure the board loves to hear it. At least, once a foundation has been set up, we can start planning for improvements in our infrastructure. And I guess your concerns come with a willingness to do something about it so we can put you down as volunteer for maintenance, right?
Until then, let's be happy Novell is paying for our infrastructure. It might not be perfect but as Stephan basically said - volunteer-run infrastructure won't be either.
I really don't understand - how do people (community or not) accept a service / product / whatever from someone else _for free_ and then complain about it? Are they the group who live at home and complain about their parents also? If you have constructive suggestions for improving the service then make them. If you don't like the service (or provider) stop dealing with them. If you want to complain, find a valid reason to do so and complain about something you expect to be changed. Anything else is whinging. There may be a new service provider / sponsor / supporter of openSUSE at some point in the future, either soon, or later. Nothing lasts forever. Until then, either accept what we have or do something to improve it.
