I find it strange that: - the URLs are obfuscated - two of the three links above lead to your personal website and not to opensuse.org. Why is this?

I think an opensuse URL looks more 'professional'. Also I may be paranoid but I trust a URL pointing to opensuse.org more than one to a private site.
