Re: [opensuse-project] SOPA blackout - I don't think openSUSE ought to be making political statements.

Just my opinion - I think openSUSE should stay far away from politics of
any kind. It doesn't matter whether it might affect the project or
not. If we had seen a discussion of SOPA on opensuse-general
or -factory, it would have been fairly quickly relegated to
opensuse-offtopic.

I'm not sure that moving to a page that request me to write to the parliament, when I'm not a USA citizen, is very correct.

On the other hand, I think that the membership in full should have been asked prior to choosing such a polemic road.
