Uwe, Not wanting to sound rude or anything, but you are slightly mistaken. The Guiding Principles apply to the *whole* of the openSUSE Project, not just the distro. This is one reason why it is important to get acceptance and understanding.

Which part of the Guiding principles is so bad that it can't be accepted (granted, for most people most things should just be considered as 'normal').

As I said, most of the things written go without saying (Be nice to others, help others, spread the word, yaddayadda...) It's the tone. It sounds all oh so important. I have token oaths before, most of which deal with protecting freedom, courage, justice. Important stuff. But this here is just a freaking operating system. Put the guiding principles somewhere, no problem, but give me a chance to ignore them <G> Uwe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
