i've received numerous private emails from my previous post asking me if this torrent is legal so i want to post my response here for all to see rather than continuing to answer everyone individually.
---------- if i thought it was illegal i wouldn't distribute it and i for sure wouldn't have openly posted that "i'm the guy" on an official suse mailing list. if i ever found out that it was illegal i'd immediately stop distributing it. ----------
i'm an honest guy, i really am. the desire to be legal is one of the biggest reasons i got involved with linux in the first place. if i receive a credible notification from novell that it's illegal for me to do this i'll cease distributing it immediately, period. i'm a longtime netware admin and i love novell, i love suse, i love linux, and i love the linux community.
As I far as I can tell, that torrent of yours came online BEFORE the official release of SuSE 9.3, right? So, where's the "legal" aspect of that? Just curious. Anders
