I translated it using Konquerors babelfish feature [1] - although the translation wasn't perfect, I'd say I got the content. To avoid that everybody has to call babelfish on itsself, here's it's translation. Please note that I did not proofread it ;-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- The social operation of the project It must be obvious for all that Novell ensures to it quasi totality of the expenditure of the project. Its receipts relating to SUSE Linux directly are not known, but there is not any doubt that they do not cover the whole of the expenditure. Nearly two hundred and fifty employees work on SUSE Linux, without it being possible to estimate the ratio openSUSE/produits professional. The interest of Novell is the sale of the professional products derived from SUSE Linux which you can examine on the site of http://www.novell.com and the flattering reputation which accompanies the parainage by projects of this type, without forgetting the assistance of the volunteers whose importance increases with time. Novell decided to behave as a benevolent dictator, i.e. that Novell reserves the right to decide on all as a last resort, but attaches a great importance to work of the users and volunteers. In practice, it is very rare that a page written by a volunteer is erased or modified by an employee of Novell and, during this first year of operation (2005-2006) one could reproach Novell for being long in implementing certain decisions (the means are limited), but not to censure the volunteers. --------------------------------------------------------------------- IMHO, this would really be something that should be listed on the project overview page - but please don't use the above machine translation ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] and filed bug 182269... -- Machen wir einen Club "utf-8 geplagte Perl-Programmierer" auf?
