Personally, I love the SuSE name. I don't use it because some people get somewhat pissed, so I use the modern name instead. Thus I only use SuSE when I want to stress the point that I'm talking about is old times.
It's pretty common to prefer nicks to polysyllabic names. In a written context, SuSE was a good name, openSUSE very bad. Exactly how is one supposed to write it as a first word of a sentence? That there would be any question is what makes it bad, not whatever the answer may be.
Reminds me. There is an old bug with the speller in open/libre Office: it does not accept "end of sentence. openSUSE ..." as correct. I just checked: LO still corrects openSUSE to OpenSUSE.
you have the ability to correct your dictionary, don't you.
and after further investigation: my libreoffice oowriter says "openSUSE" is correct as is and I do not recall ever checking that before. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
