I am quite
"amused" -to put things very mildly - to see somebody from
Novell make
this kind of arguments. Novell does the same thing, and even worse:
I'm sorry, are you saying the Novell has an open source project for
which it
does not accept open source contributions under the same license as
the
project, but instead asks all contributors to make an unrestricted
assignment of their copyrights to Novell? If so, please tell me which
project that would be.
OpenSuse is directly copyrighted to Novell. Other open source projects
such as iFolder, AppArmor would fall in that category although I'm not
sure about them (although I don't see them being "given" to an
external entity) Evolution, just like many Gnome projects and the
Gnome desktop as a whole also has an copyright umbrella (under the
Gnome Foundation). Once again, I don't complain about that, I believe
it's just normal practice for the majority of FOSS projects. Heck,
even the FSF does that...
Best,
Charles.
