Hi, 2011/4/27 Koushik Kumar Nundy <kknundy@gmail.com>:
It appears that the openSUSE project has no official stance for or against Balsam, and I personally feel it shouldn't have one either, so there really isn't much we can do about it. Another company, another product. Apparently end of story. Let us worry about the openSUSE project. Let openSLX worry about Balsam.
It actually is another company, same product. And it seems largely at the expenses of the openSUSE project, which does most of the job without getting anything back. Someone claims openSLX contributes to openSUSE, but how? Splitting the community with the creation of their support site and redirecting users there? Taking advantage of two projects from Novell without benefits for our community? Because the benefits of Balsam Enterprise will only be for them it seems. Not having a position on that does not seem a good idea to me, especially when the position was very clear when the internal community to the openSUSE project tried to do something similar. It frankly seems that community members have to pay a price others do not have to pay, and it comes natural to ask what is the advantage of contributing to a project that works this way.
