Well what if somebody suggested the inclusion of Nazi texts in openSUSE? Would it be then valid to say "if you do not want it, just do not install it"?
What, you'd rather everyone forget the lessons learned so incalculably tragically? Of course Nazi text's should be either allowed or not according to ONLY the same rules as text about anything else, which are purely technical, organizational, practical. If we don't have text about say the changing salinity of sea water over time, it's only because opensuse aims to be an operating system not a library. That would be the only reason to prevent Nazi text from residing in a repo. Because it has nothing to do with the operating system, not because it has something to do with actions or people or ideologies one or more of us finds objectionable. It's more important for good people to study evil things than to try to forget them or pretend they don't exist or otherwise avoid thinking about them. -- bkw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
