This is not to say that an openSUSE foundation will neccesarily hold the openSUSE trademarks I would like to have clarified the fact that what mean "name change" IMHO, the *foundation* name and the *project* name do not have to be the same. Ubuntu is backed by Canonical... not the same name at all. so why is the vote for? Name of the project? Name of the foundation?
This is a huge simplification of how Ubuntu and Canonical operate, Ubuntu has Ubuntu Foundation, which is supported by Canonical. Ubuntu by itself is a name for `Foundation`, what we would call `Project` and the `Distribution`. For us openSUSE is a name for the `Project` and that's it.
A few lightweight comments:
1) this question reminds me strangely of the Brexit referendum as it’s a simple question with one path familiar and the other totally undefined. I think it will produce the same kind of result … people dissatisfied with the status-quo will vote against without voting for something deliverable.
2) at the same time as they vote, if they choose “change" they should be asked how much time they will contribute. If the answer is zero, their vote is discarded. If it’s some time, then keep them to their commitment.
3) the openSUSE brand is long inthe market and well recognised. Why are we proposing to throw away that value?
I certainly don't want to discourage these valid comments, but all three points were previously raised and responded to in various ways, so it might be worth you reading the archives to catch up on those discussions. N�����r��y隊Z)z{.��k�7��맲��r��z�^�ˬz��N�(�֜��^� ޭ隊Z)z{.��k�7���0�����Ǩ�
