Whoever buys openSUSE will be buying it for a reason, and they will not invest a substantial chunk of money into acquiring openSUSE from Novel only to kill it off and bury the remains.
You would need to qualify that slightly by saying the possibility, though rare, may depend on the source of the capital used for the purchase. There are those with adverse motives of course... ( hypothetically MS funds the vmware purchase using vmware as the front-man, kills suse, then sues Novell and the wayward users for infringement under the MS-Novell deal). Nah -- it would never happen :p
It's all speculation. None of us has any firm information, and those that do cannot talk about it (and I don't expect them to speak up either). C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
