Patrick,

http://en.opensuse.org/Communicate
"User/Support Lists
These lists are for generic questions and User to User support for the 
openSUSE distribution.
* [email protected]"

This is not only about technical, but also openSUSE distribution related 
social questions. That all is support. 

So it is not really OT to discuss recent events. 
What makes all threads looking bad is that many negative messages are based on 
external sources that are not necessarily friendly, only because they come 
from other Linux oriented sources. 

The Linux is commercialized more every day, and competition is growing. 
It is to expect more and worse attacks in the future, with more discussions 
going about. It is time to think about openSUSE-advocacy list, to move social 
events from this group. Just going around, telling everybody that any social 
related discussion is OT, leads nowhere.
