Thats how I took it too (from the OP) - though considering the efforts of Andreas, Sonja, Henne, etc, etc - how could we not consider them an important part of the community? Not only do they contribute as their job demands, but, imho, they all have gone above and beyond is support of OpenSUSE as a community effort. Should Novell have assistance available? Sure, but I believe by providing the framework, they have done just that. They have also worked with vendors to assure compatibility, apply pressure on software companies to make Linux an easier transition, and now have even started a podcast. I'd say they damn well do plenty, and I appreciate that :) Joseph M.
