This is valid as long as openSUSE as community has no own support channel for other potential contributors. IMO, good will without contracts is good, but it is extremely volatile; one day we can have servers for web presence and the other nothing, forcing move to new location, interruption of service etc. To have ability to sign contracts with sponsors and provide long term stability to support infrastructure we have to formalize this part of openSUSE activity, by creation of legal entity behind project. -- Regards Rajko, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
