I like the changes, so if nobody sees any problems with them, I'll go ahead and change the EULA.
I have attached a LibreOffice document with the proposal,
* I can't display it with the correct character encoding
Me nether (in OO.o on 11.3 - maybe it is better with LibreO on 11.4 ?)
* A large part is taken by openSUSE being under Utah/US laws and limitations. I beg this is linked to Novell being american, when most devs are from germany. I beg we can't avoid this...

Maybe someone could ask my colleges (in Utah? from Novell?) if and in what rate/in what amount they have considered the interests of the SUSE GmbH and each of the the German/European programmers beside the interests of the Novell Inc.?
The document wasdiscussed on this list a couple of years ago, you can read some background about it at: http://zonker.opensuse.org/2008/11/26/opensuse-sports-a-new-license-ding-don... the-eulas-dead/ We really tried to use a generic, easy to understand document that is as open as the software we distribute ;). If you have specific concerns, please raise them. I heard no objection to the changes I proposed - so let's move forward with them, while we can continue discussing specific concerns for those areas that are in the document for more than 2 years now, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
