I certainly do. A community is _people_ not _projects_. You are _not_ discussing _the community_, you're discussing _the work_. No matter how many times you repeat it, you're not going to change English to suit your misunderstanding.
I think that Randall is technically correct, even though his tone at times can sound on the aggressive side, whether it is intentional or not. We all think we know what 'community' means, but we do use the term where the word 'project' would be much more suitable. 'Community' _is_ a set of people, this is a definition of the word in English. The openSUSE community is the set of people involved in the openSUSE project. Therefore, examine your own use of the word 'community' and see if you really mean 'project'. Houghi's signature in my view is currently wrong, and should state project rather than community. The words are not synonymous.
