CulCullin contacted us (thanks at this point) and brought the discussion on the mailing list to our attention. Our forum has been around for approximately five years, and within the last few months we created a (fairly lively) openSuSE subforum. Would you all consider pointing the openSuSE community to our subforum in lieu of creating a brand new forum? By virtue of the fact that we've been around awhile, we already have a large member base and a number of knowledgable users who are happy to help newbies with various problems. And even though our forum covers more than just openSuSE, the problems of openSuSE users often intersect with those of SuSE users (so the added benefit would be that they could learn from problems/solutions outside the scope of just openSuSE). Please let us know if you have questions or if you'd like to discuss further. Regards the SuSELinuxSupport.de moderating team.

Thank you for the feedback. First: on http://www.opensuse.org/Communicate there exists a link to your site. So pointing is available. Poeple should be pointed to tjis page and then make their own choice. Even when and if there will be a forum.openSUSE.org these links will still be existing and available on the site. I doubt anybody has any reason to remove them (unless for updating purposes) Secondly, I hope you know that the way SUSE is written is SUSE and not SuSE and openSUSE, not openSuSE or OpenSuSE (Unless you start it as the first word on a sentence) This change happen before Novell took over, so don't blame them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuSE explains it to be done after the takeover, but I don't thionk that is correct. (Mmm, perhaps a wiki page about that. Anybody from SUSE that can provide me correct dates when it went from S.u.S.E. ro SuSE to SUSE. Perhaps also a bit of history on what version came out when. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuSE and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSUSE already exist, but nothing on openSUSE.org that I could find. houghi -- A bore is someone who persists in holding his own views after we have enlightened him with ours.
