openSUSE is what the community makes out of it - and I consider myself and Novell part of the community.
this is not true. Novel may be benevolent it's still a dictator... See what openFATE will do in the future :-)
Can you elaborate on what you mean? (so we can try to fix it :-))
important choices are made by we don't know who in Novell management, certainly not by "the community". openFATE seems a way to ask the community what it wants, we will see how Novell work with it
Stupid question: what's blocking non-Novell people to implement the features tracked in openFATE?
There should be nothing. And if somebody feels blocked, speak up and I'll try to help moving the block.
I can understand that the priorities as seen by the Novell management can have an impact on what the Novell employees work on. But it doesn't mean it's blocking non-Novell people to do other things (and actually, you will likely see Novell people work on other stuff in their free time).
