https://ciq.com/whitepaper/vendor-kernels-bugs-stability/ [quote] A vendor kernel is an insecure kernel. A late cycle stabilized vendor kernel is doubly so. [/quote] If I understand this, it means Leap's default kernels are among the least secure available. :( -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.

Fwd: Weblate Outage
by Lubos Kocman 10 May '24

10 May '24

(on behalf of Padraig Dillion) Planning Disruption for Weblate Migration The [openSUSE](https://www.opensuse.org/) will undergo a critical update with the migration of [Weblate](https://l10n.opensuse.org/) to a hosted solution. Shifting to a hosted solution for the web-based localization tool in order to keep up with the increasing demands of projects’ development. The migration is slated for May 14 and it is anticipated that the service will be down for approximately one day. This is a planned short-term inconvenience for a long-term benefit and will allow for our translation contributors to pick up right where they left off. People wanting to contribute to the openSUSE Project by helping to translate using [Weblate](https://weblate.org/en/) can register on https://l10n.opensuse.org and connect with other translators through translation(a)lists.opensuse.org and project(a)lists.opensuse.org mailing lists. Any attempt to connect to Weblate during the migration will trigger a notification informing the user of the ongoing maintenance. Others will be informed of the outage through https://status.opensuse.org. -- Best regards Luboš Kocman openSUSE Leap Release Manager

06 May '24

Hey, we don't really have any description of the governance of the openSUSE organization on github. There are also not very many org maintainers active anymore. I think it's a bit too important to leave this undefined. Here is my proposal on how to do this in a slightly more structured way: https://github.com/openSUSE/.github/pull/1 Let us know what you think in the pull request. Henne -- Henne Vogelsang http://www.opensuse.org Everybody has a plan, until they get hit. - Mike Tyson
