this thread is basically without real meaning... Probably this dicussion would have not existed if we had the Foundation. we can have several sponsors, Novell is one, open-slx can be an other. That said, may be the openSUSE foundation board can also act as an arbiter between sponsors is necessary. It's not necessarily good to have two sponsors fight one against the other. that said, what open-slx do is not really our bussiness as long as the licence is followed. Nor is our bussiness the way Novell manage SLES/SLED. and of course we don't have to support our sponsors, this is the other way round, our sponsors have to support us :-)) don't you think? jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
