    SuSE and RH have their own legal teams who have combed through all of this and have decided not to chance it. Personally, I wouldn’t base a significant part of the foundation of any product on something as fickle as a Supreme Court ruling, especially when the product is something major from a group like SuSE or RH.

      There isn’t much to “chance”. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has the authority in the matter.

      Some organizations just don’t take no for an answer
