I'd like to propose a very simple change in the policy of OpenSUSE. Currently there are easy ways of replacing proprietary Flash - Player software by other options. At the same time, I believe that we - are many more users that currently know how to make this change, that - want to do it and that is not for us a nuisance but a pleasure to - perform it, thus giving a step towards the use of more free software in - our computers. I know and use various GNU/Linux and I note that - OpenSUSE is one of the distributions more difficult to configure to get - this software change, not to mention the strange message I have found - in this new version, the 13.2, which threatens to eliminate codecs and - language of K3b package, although it has seemed to me that, finally, it - does not. Thank you for your attention and congratulations for this - beautiful new version. + Player software by other options.
