Yes, we are not talking about replacing the normal distribution but rather our business product SuSE Linux Enterprise Server. UnitedLinux, at least in its first incarnation, will be based on the next version of SLES which will be enhanced and modified to suit all participating parties.
Philipp, Does this mean that the SuSE Pro version will also stay pretty much the same? Will there be per seat licensing (like Caldera) for any SuSE versions, consumer or UnitedLinux? I have to agree with the Ransom Love comments. He is bad news and the inclusion of Caldera really hurts the brand instead of helping in my view. I have talked to a number of my associates with varying levels of involvement in Linux. Some view UnitedLinux as pure marketing hype, others as an alliance with too many partners and doomed to fail. It's still too early for me to have much of an opinion so I'll just wait and see. Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Got spam? Get spastic http://spastic.sourceforge.net
