Hi all,
I am not an openSUSE member and therefore not eligible to vote. But nonetheless I would like to express my opinion here and encourage you to keep the existing and well-established name.
I have seen really big companies investing millions in campains to communicate a name change - and in my perception they still failed, and in the end they lost part of their visibility in the public. For openSUSE that would be a bitter setback.
The name openSUSE stands for an open, rock-solid, powerful and community driven distribution. This is a treasure that we must not risk recklessly.
Regards, Martin Winter

Hi all,
We will have a Project name change vote and that process will be carried out using Helios, the same platform that we use to run openSUSE elections.
Only openSUSE members are eligible to cast a vote and voting instructions are sent to the @opensuse.org member alias.
Therefore, please make sure that your membership alias is forwarding emails to the correct email address. If any change is required to your email address you may contact heroes@opensuse.org to help you out.
If you have any query regarding your membership status you may reach out to the membership officials through membership-officials@opensuse.org.

Ish Sookun Hi Martin, Thanks for your input. Most pros and cons have been mentioned in earlier
