To summarize from https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project/2016-02/msg00159.html
This has been our stance since 2006:
Developers of the kernel community consider non-GPL kernel modules to be infringing on their copyright. openSUSE does respect this position and will not distribute non-GPL kernel modules as part of products.
... While I completely agree with not providing ZFS, I would rather avoid basing it on reasoning like above if we are apparently completely fine with kernel modules which are not even open source. Some might even use the H-word, I guess.
I aggree, in special as these kernel people seem to be uninformed regarding legal reasoning. Once they removed all BSD code from the kernel, they may become believable.
