I normally run the Evergreen versions, with the latest being 13.1. Will there be an Evergreen Leap?
Leap is supposed to be a longer-support version itself, I'm not sure what the current status is.
I think the idea is to do something similar to service packs, but that would apply to the SLE core. The kernel is not part of it. And many packages came from tumbleweed, so... I think it means updating to 42.2 soon, somehow.
100% agreed. There is a plan, but a big part of the plan is flexibility. Certainly Leap 42 (vs. 42.1) will be supported until SLES 13 comes out (a few years?). Leap at its core is tied to SLES. SLES 12 SP2 is in the offing, so Leap 42.2 won't be far behind. http://opensuse.markmail.org/thread/nr3aczhig5ofb35r Next month (May) a set of SP2 beta packages is supposed to be in OBS. The first alpha release of Leap 42.2 is targeted for the end of May. Over the following few months a decision has to be made for each and every update that is in SLES 12 SP2: Do we submit the same update to Leap 42.2? Or do we get an even newer version out of factory (tumbleweed)? If the 42.1 package came from factory/tumbleweed, then I assume that in general the Leap 42.2 package will be updated to the latest tumbleweed version. If the 42.1 package came from SLE 12, then the odds are high the SP2 update will be used for that package.
