:Yet Another Linux Blog: Guilty by Association
Yet Another Linux Blog: Guilty by Association
Jan 8, 2007, 21 :15 UTC (15 Talkback[s]) (4886 reads)

I was reading an article at Linux Today earlier and saw this line from the article, which was penned in defense of Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols (and rightly so...I have no idea why people would call SJVN a shill...he's the farthest thing from it). I'm not so much concerned with people attacking SJVN so much as I am with the editor's (it's an editor's note) second item that he's bugged by:

"'The other reaction that bugged me was this guilt-by-association that's been glommed onto openSUSE. Why does this product and its developers suddenly have to take the fall for the actions of Novell...?'"
