SUSE plans to contribute this project to an open source foundation, which will provide ongoing free access to alternative source code.
Sounds like they’re spinning this off to a separate legal entity which won’t be profit driven. I’m not saying don’t be cautious, but it looks like they’re taking appropriate steps to work with the community.

SuSE may, in the future, pull some stunt similar to IBM/RedHat; but, IBM/RedHat have already pulled those stunt(s).
So, yeah. SuSE are probably more trustworthy right now.
