This does suck, because I originally came to openSUSE because of Novell. I knew the name from Netware way back in the day when I actually got paid to mess with computers. I respected the name, and liked what they did, so the “open” flavor I liked because it’s a name I trust. There’s also the community goodwill they did with regards to donating code to the public domain or under GPL to help clear up some of the Linux / SCO crap. They’ve proven to me to be OSS friendly in words and deed so I support them (and have bought swag from them directly, since I don’t plan to pay “commercial OS license fees” for my homelab). Any other name that doesn’t have that pedigree will be a step backwards to me.
WITH ALL THAT SAID: Gecko Linux. Or Geeko. Both work for me. I like the lizard and would like to keep that.
AND TO ADD: That new Tumbleweed logo, ugh. I would like to go back to the old “infinity” one.
END RANT!
That’s just me tho and I know nobody cares what I think. As long as Tumbleweed stays the solid rolling distro it is now I’m not going anywhere. I do wish I could contribute in a meaningful way but I’m still learning Linux and am not much of a coder either.
