What are the Free Software policies inside the openSUSE project?
The only thing FSF notices that separates openSUSE Project from the Emacs Church is "openSUSE offers its users access to a repository of nonfree software" [1].
Could this change? I mean, could this repository be ousted from openSUSE but still being accessible by openSUSE users if they want to? Instructions could be given in forums outside the wiki or the official openSUSE community sites.
Something like packman but with no help from the community. It would also be a chance for business for someone that wants also to help freedom but on the other hand to help a user in the extreme case that some hardware cannot work with Free Software and she wants it to work "the very moment".
Haeh, that all sounds ridiculous. "Something like packman but with no help from the community" Who is the community? Who is openSUSE? openSUSE creates a distribution (oss). There is an additonal repository where nobody is forced to use it (non-oss). I'm a strong believer in open source but if that is something the FSF sees as an issue I don't want to have to do with them.
