Hi, I am atm at BrainShare and not up to date with my emails, but I saw this this thread in list archive. We do have two independend issues here, first the Wiki copyright statement. Our legal department is a bit overloaded atm, but I am still in good hope that we can remove the Copyright statement rather soon. Regarding the distribution license, all what it is good for is to avoid having multiple "SUSE Linux 10.0" isos out there which do contain complete different content. I think this is reasonable and helps us all, otherwise people speaking about a SUSE Linux which we do not know at all maybe. Of course we _want_ to support forks of the distribution, all what one need is to change the name like "Adrians SUSE Linux" or "Helgas Home Linux". Nothing on the medias is copyprotected, because only software with OSI licenses is on it. I hope this helps. bye adrian Adrian Schroeter SuSE AG, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de
