It's easy to say "you should publish German OWN on current openSUSE infrastructure". But if someone tells (or ask) Sascha to do so, (s)he should be responsible to help to do so at the same time. If no one except Sascha step forward to translate OWN into German, only Sascha can decide which way is the best. Just saying "although I won't do, you should do!" won't motivate others.
For my own part, I'm not saying "although I won't do it, you should do it this way" - I'm talking about a larger problem, namely the fragmentation of the community. Now, I'm not in a position to translate OWN to German (as I don't speak German), but I do contribute in my own way (ie, as a member of staff on the openSUSE Forums). But the underlying issue here isn't the publication of OWN through open- slx rather than openSUSE, but rather the fragmentation of the community through the creation of yet another openSUSE Portal for German community members. And as such, my involvement in community *unity* is hardly a passive role.
