The only way OpenSUSE can ever be safe from the whims of the accountants and financiers is to become independent of any single large corporate sponser. I don't see it happening ... so uncertainty is the prevalent reality .... What large open source project is actually independent of a large (or multiple) corporate sponsor? OpenOffice.org has Oracle, Ubuntu has Canonical, openSUSE has Novell and so on. There are a few single-application projects that may bumble along on their own, but it's a rare animal the size and scope of openSUSE that is actually independent.
