What does this mean for openSUSE? It used to be my favourite distro. It is definitely a very competent distro in its own right although people hardly mention it in India.
which part of India is this? It is widely used in many parts of India.
Well I would not say it is widely used. Not as much as Fedora or Ubuntu certainly. We used it in our college to the extent that we had local openSUSE repositories on the network but if you talk about the openSUSE community, there is a very low-traffic opensuse-india list. Jigish Gohil from Vadodara drives the list and the very small community. Infact I can count on a single finger how many active openSUSE evangelists exist on mailing lists in India.
What I wanted to know though is how the Novell sell-out affects openSUSE as a community distro.
