Which brings us back to the question of what Novell's position is for
openSUSE compared with their position for SLE.

Well the problem was no-one knows what Novell's position is for openSUSE,
It would be nice to know. If the position is "We will tolerate binary
modules for enterprise customers, but not for openSUSE users" which it
seems to be, then at least we would know where we stand.

For what it is worth I agree with your assessment of the legality and
morality, but this does not explain Novell/Nvidia's seemingly differing
official position for different products.
