atm we have the clear policy to allow only OSI approved licenses within the build service. We could change this of course, I have the fear that mixed source packages would damage the open source character of our project.
I see the build service as a very nice tool that SUSE is giving to the packagers so they have an easier time making packages. It wouldn't hurt if the build service would have a clearly defined section with third party proprietary packages. Perhaps some vendors would use the build service to make .RPMs of their software then put that software on their own site for download. Anything that increases the number of well built packages for SUSE is a good thing. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
