| ender_33 | ahhhh I see where you're going with it | Jul 07 14:15 |
| ender_33 | you think novell = opensuse | Jul 07 14:15 |
| ender_33 | if it is based on what you say, Redhat owns Fedora | Jul 07 14:17 |
| ender_33 | and I know thats not true | Jul 07 14:17 |
| ender_33 | two of the opensuse board members are novell (out of 5) | Jul 07 14:18 |
| ender_33 | can you prove they have more influence than the other 3, and carry more voting weight | Jul 07 14:18 |
| ender_33 | I don't see it | Jul 07 14:19 |
| ender_33 | just as Fedora does, they also carry elections for the board | Jul 07 14:22 |
| ender_33 | those two novell people were chosen by the community | Jul 07 14:22 |
| ender_33 | the decision would've been based on merit | Jul 07 14:22 |

| ender_33 | The persons with the most votes will be elected for the board. Note that no single organization or company can control more than 40 per cent of the electable board seats (more than 2 seats). Please read the full description of the election process. | Jul 07 14:25 |
| ender_33 | none of the election officials have ties to Novell | Jul 07 14:26 |

| ender_33 | Novell | Jul 07 14:30 |
| schestowitz | It's partly PR trick as volunteers are rarely full-timers | Jul 07 14:32 |
| schestowitz | Those who really own SUSE are Andreas and others | Jul 07 14:32 |
| ender_33 | source? | Jul 07 14:32 |
| schestowitz | The core people are longtime staff | Jul 07 14:32 |
| ender_33 | Most of the people working on opensuse are non-novell | Jul 07 14:33 |
| ender_33 | Andreas Jaeger? | Jul 07 14:35 |
| ender_33 | he was chair 2007-2008 | Jul 07 14:35 |
| ender_33 | its easier to sling mud vs research | Jul 07 14:36 |
| MinceR | said the guy who calls everyone who disagrees with him a "communist" and an "agent" | Jul 07 14:37 |
| *MinceR turns off his irony meter, as it has been overloaded now | Jul 07 14:37 | |
| ender_33 | it just seems that way because you ignore my evidence | Jul 07 15:08 |
| ender_33 | ignoring evidence is different than not providing any | Jul 07 15:08 |
| MinceR | oh, you have evidence that everyone who disagrees with you on IRC is a "communist" and an "agent"? | Jul 07 15:09 |
| ender_33 | that's your own theory | Jul 07 15:13 |
| ender_33 | can you provide evidence that i've called everyone who disagrees with me a communist or agent | Jul 07 15:14 |
| MinceR | yes, i can | Jul 07 15:16 |
| MinceR | it's on the TR website, under public logs :> | Jul 07 15:16 |
| oiaohm | I don't remember ender_33 Insulting me yet. | Jul 07 15:18 |
| MinceR | don't be too happy about that, it might not last :> | Jul 07 15:18 |
| oiaohm | I have disgreed with ender_33 before. | Jul 07 15:19 |
| oiaohm | So its not 100 percent. | Jul 07 15:19 |
| MinceR | couldn't be much of a disagreement then | Jul 07 15:19 |
| oiaohm | MinceR: run for 4 and a half hours. | Jul 07 15:21 |
| oiaohm | MinceR: that is why I remember it. | Jul 07 15:21 |
| ender_33 | mincer - I haven't called _you_ a communist or agent | Jul 07 15:21 |
| MinceR | you did call me at least an agent | Jul 07 15:21 |
| oiaohm | ender_33: short memory on that one. MinceR on an annoying day I can understant it. | Jul 07 15:22 |
| ender_33 | oiaohm - true | Jul 07 15:24 |
| ender_33 | “I can’t prove you are a Communist. But when I see a bird that quacks like a duck, walks like a duck, has feathers and webbed feet and associates with ducks—I’m certainly going to assumer that he IS a duck.” - Emil Mazey from the United Automobile Workers | Jul 07 15:33 |
