SUSE recommends that companies should run on FOSS – but an accidental revelation from a company exec, live on stage, reveals it doesn’t practice what it preaches. It’s not alone.

For this vulture, the single most amusing revelation from any of the industry speakers at this year’s Open Source Policy Summit was from SUSE’s Dominic Laurie, who moderated the final panel discussion of the day, “Sovereignty and Procurement.”

The panel ended a few minutes before the scheduled time, and he closed it with a surprising comment:
