    Am I the only one old enough to remember the 2006 deal between Microsoft and Novell? Now Red Hat is on the hot seat with everyone blaming and hating, I remember when Novell was in similar position in terms of community feeling betrayed.

        There have been several acquisitions in the meantime, that’s true, but remembering the past helps not to be fooled again.

          Maybe it does, but since it’s not the same entity and SUSE now has full autonomy, it might be better to be cautiously confident? It’s my stand anyhow.
