thousands? Who knows at this early point. But we intend to find out! :-)
but do we need many?
in France, creating an association is very cheap - you not even have to be incorporated and if you do you have to have 3 people and approx €30 to publish in the official newspaper, no more.
no. The problem is not of money, but of property.
Say, if ever the new association become owner of the opensuse name, we have to be sure nobody will stole it!
control is not that easy...

Yes. Control of identity is always a challenge. We have not even gotten to the point of discussing whether we would own the openSUSE name or if it will still be owned by Novell with permission from them to use it for this purpose. That's a whole 'nother ballgame, but yes an important part of the puzzle. We do however, have the authority now to determine who may use the openSUSE trademarks on their material (i.e. print, merchandise, websites, etc.)
