XE is very negative as it's a company name in the US formerly known as
Blackwater. Personaly I wouldn't associate openSUSE with terminology
that is the actual name of a company which outsources mercenaries to
the US Army, specially when the press has taken them down several
times and their atrocities in Iraq are well known...


Search google for Blackwater (now XE).

just my two thoughts... as a former soldier I don't see mercs with good eyes.

In the most points, I agree with you. But How shall we name it during
the discussion on the Mailing list?

How about simply "openSUSE X.Y LTS" or would that be to obvious?

would so not the best looks like wee copied simple ubuntu. To openSUSE X.Y
is a evergreen version sounds much better.

well, how would you then call the next LTS which has to coexist for at least
a
bit more than just a few months with the current LTS so people can upgrade
when they feel comfortable?

In regards to "copying" buntu by calling a LTS LTS I disagree.



What about openSUSE x.x XE stands for openSUSE x.x eXtended Edition ?
And not copying none.
