Novell was not opposed. *Michael Meeks* was opposed. He was not speaking
for Novell, and his reasons for opposing were very developer-focused. It
was a personal opinion, and I doubt Novell would like it been seen as an
official Novel position.
One point I've been thinking is that the overall architecture of this
would be precisely that it would be "within" the OOo overall structure.
An analogue would be java.net, which hosts lots of java projects. OOo
could thus "include," in a formal and even logical way, the foundation.
Wouldn't that counter the goal of using the Foundation as an opportunity
to correct the governance problems in OOo? A foundatino that is an OOo
sub project seems distant from what I felt was discussed at Koper.
Cheers,
Daniel.
