at least part of this discussion wasn't about any particular religion or content, but about the question if to include such packages, i.e., the rule on content you mention, thre pro's & con's. how can you discuss if such a rule is desirable or not without mentioning the word "religion?"
If we, the community, decide the rule stands some packages will have to go...if the rule goes... some new packages shall be welcomed... in our education package...
fair enough.
just keep in mind that tolerance to intolerance is not a sign of being wise...it means just you are an idiot...
in many cases that's clear and obvious. in others it depends on interpretation and subjective understanding. in such cases, if you want to exclude everything that _somebody_ considers offensive, or that somebody interpretes in an offensive way, there won't be much left of your distro. -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

It seems to me to be perfectly reasonable to keep these sorts of software in Education. We clearly like to organize in descriptive repos, so that is the right place for Sword, Zekr or other such materials. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
