Believe it or not, an unexpected conflict has arisen in the openSUSE community with its long-time supporter and namesake, the SUSE company.
At the heart of this tension lies a quiet request that has stirred not-so-quiet ripples across the open source landscape: SUSE has formally asked openSUSE to discontinue using its brand name.
Richard Brown, a key figure within the openSUSE project, shared insights into the discussions that have unfolded behind closed doors.
Despite SUSE’s request’s calm and respectful tone, the implications of not meeting it could be far-reaching, threatening the symbiotic relationship that has benefited both entities over the years.
Dont do things that aren’t necessary.The name is adequate, it performs it’s function, its there.Feels like consumerism, always “innovating” for the sake if being new and flashy.Oh, wait, SUSE said that? Weird.
I guess if it’s a (kind of) must, tho that makes me weary of what’s SUSEs plan that they would benefit from this. It can’t be just stupid manager stuff, right? :D
That said, I submit open-me-SUSSY for consideration.
I believe most will assume correctly what the general idea for the logo would be, so no need to sketch it.
