openSUSE is what the community makes out of it - and I consider myself and Novell part of the community.

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
That's something we're trying to get away from. As Andreas says - it's not easy. It's not just a matter of "Novell doesn't want to give up control," either - part of it is being conscious of when decisions should be made publicly, rather than by the people in the room at any given time. So, 1) please be patient with the Novell employees who are moving in the right direction, and 2) *politely* remind us if/when "important choices" are made without input from the community. This is like any other relationship, it takes work, but we'll get there. :-) Thanks!
