Gemini version available ♊︎OpenSUSE “Can’t Handle the Truth”?
It continues to seem as though various members of the OpenSUSE community have an allergy for the FSF, the GNU GPLv3, and… even Groklaw.
One prominent person from the OpenSUSE forums (a moderator too) is targeting the credibility Pamela Jones’ analysis. Needless to say, despite Novell’s contribution to SCO’s demise, she does not like the deal with Microsoft. She never did and she has protested from the very start when she posted with the headline “Novell Sells Out”.
We have already brought to OpenSUSE’s attention the dissection of the deal and its effects on the community, which now seems to be in a state of denial.
[elsewhere:] “Still, I could be wrong, so take this with a grain of salt. I can’t bring myself to search through Groklaw looking for the info”
[...]
[Wilson Phillips:] “I fully understand the Groklaw thing. I try to stay as far away from that site as possible”
Here is what these folks are trying to escape: What Does MS Want? — Brains for Sale?

Wow, talk about taking quotes out of context.
But I guess if your goal is to slander someone, that’s what ya gotta do, eh?

Seen the context as well. The statement made here (ignoring Groklaw’s assessment) is nothing new and was mentioned before.
