Hi all,

The former mentioned about CentOS and suggesting Leaf lead to constructive 
discussions, so these are OK and healthy as it leads to insights on both sides.

But yes, a retweet with a negative tone can only lead to negativity. Any 
official account should uphold social values and respect.  Especially online it 
shouldn't be about bashing or gaining at the cost of others. We are working in 
the same community for the same gains; making OSS successful. Calling out for 
dialog sure, but this isn't that.

Regards,


Gerard

Note: Although I work for Red Hat, these views are my own. I have respect for 
SUSE and the openSUSE community. Especially as I assist them here in Asia/China 
to develop and grow. Had many good conversations with jzb before he moved.

I'm not sure I completely agree with your description of the changes
around CentOS, but that's not the point here.

I personally oppose¹ those Tweets coming from the @openSUSE account and
suggest we (i.e., someone with access to the account, unlike me) take
them down. And refrain from going into that direction in the future.

¹ anti-support isn't an English verb, I guess?
