It’s become clear to many that Red Hat’s recent missteps with CentOS and the availability of RHEL source code indicate that it’s fallen from its respected place as “the open organization.” SUSE seems to be poised to benefit from Red Hat’s errors. We connect the dots.

    their demand that OpenSUSE rebrand

    Slight changing of the tone, there. They have formally requested the change, not demanded.

    Maybe that will follow, I can’t read the future, but it’s not the case today.

      I mean yes they did “formally request” it, but given the power dynamic between a FOSS project and a large technology company, openSUSE is not in a position where they could possibly refuse. So is there a difference between a request and a demand?
