the project that way. If, for instance, the project is aiming to become primarily a volunteer effort, strongly backed by Novell funding (infrastructure, staff etc), we need to aim at attracting volunteer contributors and developers.
looks like it's the case :-)
Yeah, I think so too, but I wanted to keep the options open. It would also seem sensible to understand why Novell is backing the project, and try to steer the project in a direction that secures that funding.
And we could think we have to adress first the case of the users that try openSUSE bit *don't* stay with it.
Well, I think we need to look first at (continuing to) attracting volunteer contributors and developers - what makes openSUSE attractive to those people? Second, what makes openSUSE attractive to Novell (I'm guessing we know the answer to that question), and then work towards that. If we can define a strategy that satisfies those two, we have the resources to cover number 3 - making openSUSE attractive to the newbie end-user. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
