I think everybody jumped on your 11.5/12.0 discussion but you raised another question that got lost:
What´s the technology way we want do for the 11.4 successor?
So, are there any great ideas that people want to do?
That's what I *want*, not necessarily what I want to *do*. :) use systemd instead of sysv use plymouth instead of slash use dracut instead of mkinitrd kill the 8 seconds grub timeout get rid of /dev/disk/by-id/ in fstab and use /dev/disk/by-uuid/ do not install hundreds of -32bit packages on a 64bit-only box :) make sysconfig network optional and run services like networkmanager from upstream shipped systemd service files, instead of weird config options in /etc/sysconfig/. All that stuff should stay for servers, but it should be optional and not be the default. make rsyslog the default syslog, without any weird /etc/sysconfig/ configuration. it should be started by a single rsyslog service file shipped from upstream. All that stuff should stay for servers, but it should be optional and not be the default. make gdm/kdm be started from systemd, and get rid of the mindless sysconfig stuff that multiplexes all the things. /etc/init.d/xdm should not be the default get rid of all the unneeded entries for virtual filesystems in /etc/fstab, especially the deprecated and unsupported usbfs. do not allow the installer to split the rootfs from /usr :) do not install any local mail servers by default Kay -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
