Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier has announced the removal of the click-through openSUSE end-user license agreement (EULA) on his blog. The new license is really a license notice, alerting users to the free software licenses of the included software. It is based on the one that Fedora uses, with their permission and encouragement. "The work we’ve done on the openSUSE Build Service and the openSUSE license is all about making it easy to redistribute openSUSE: Either as-is, or modified to suit your needs. Want to ship an Xfce or KDE 3.5 live CD? We want to make that easy. Want to use openSUSE for another project that we haven’t thought of? Again - we want you to, and we want to make it easy! (And, of course, we want you to have a lot of fun while you’re doing this – though our lawyers tell us that’s not legally enforceable.)" The text of the new license is also available.
