Bottom line:
If you seek more independence, then just do it (as Henne says.) Each and every one of us brings something unique to the table. If there's something you can do and want to do, do it. And if you encounter obstacles, raise your voice loudly and challenge us (the community) to remove those obstacles to make your work more productive.
Many individuals, and corporate players too, will refuse to work unless they believe their contributions are a good investment.
As for sponsorship from other organizations, again this is speculation. We have not done anything yet to actively seek out sponsorships. This is one goal of the Foundation to begin an active process of sponsorship. But until we actively do so, any assumption why we don't have sponsors now besides the primary Novell sponsorship is pure speculation.
It's not speculation, it's self evident: Novell/Microsoft is repulsive to other corporate players. Accept it, and recognize that gaining full independence is essential for overcoming it. -- Web mail, POP3, and SMTP http://www.beewyz.com/freeaccounts.php -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
