How can this be legally binding? Did openSUSE.org sign some kind of agreement with Microsoft? Is Novell allowed to enter into legal agreements on openSUSE.org's behalf?
openSUSE.org is a _project_ run by Novell. There is no separate legal identity called openSUSE.org (at least not publicly known). There is no openSUSE foundation that owns anything. All project copyrights, trademarks and other IP are held by Novell directly, including the domain name. Even the community wiki contributions are copyright by Novell (albeit licensed back using GFDL). So I would say, yes Novell can enter in to agreements in regard to openSUSE.org Pflodo Peter Flodin --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
