#####  SuSE has always been freely distributed.  I just downloaded  
the 5-CD set of the latest version of SuSE 9.3 Professional a week or  
two ago.  It does not include some items they have to pay a license  
fee for, but everything else is there.

So does this mean they're going to stop the free distribution?

Maybe I don't understand what the change is going to be.
