Being independent does not mean Novell cannot sponsor oS, or lets it use the infrastructure...
In fact, that's where we are, as AJ pointed out. Novell has moved from being a "controller" of openSUSE to being a partner/sponsor of openSUSE. But apparently, some people just can't see past that.
What of becoming a parter from Novell? If Novell is for sale, can the community buy it?
Sure. Last time I checked, the Novell price tag was around $2.5 Billion. Pocket change for us in the community! :-)
What is it oS needs, besides the infrastructure and a lot of money?
Contributions! Contributions! Contributions! Doesn't really matter if we have money and infrastructure if we don't have people stepping up to take the lead on various tasks.
