Open Letter to the openSUSE Board, Project and Community (Final) - openSUSE Project
lists.opensuse.org
Dear all, Let me first define a couple of things that the community is being faced with: - Our current governance is not working. With the things we're facing and the current model / Board rules……

Considering the recent news/proposal from SUSE about OpenSUSE rebranding - what do you think would be some fitting names for the distro/community?

    Irrelevant and unused

    I don’t understand why they are shooting themselves in the foot

      Clearly you don’t understand any fucking thing about the topic. SUSE, the IT corporation from which openSUSE derives its name, has a similar relationship to that of Redhat and Fedora. They aren’t shooting themselves in the foot, their benefactor wants them to rebrand so that openSUSE isn’t branded the same as the IT product that SUSE sells.

        The problem is that’s the way its been for a long time. Changing the brand now destroys the brand recognition and will harm only them.
