apart from he´s not using alpine anymore, but the GMail-webinterface, I 
have to admit that I gree with your points. Maybe we should wait a time 
until he really uses openSUSE and then ask him, about his personal 
opinion about Tumbleweed or what we can improve. Maybe he will do that 
on his own, I remember some posts of him to the Fedora devel lists.

After a night of sleep, I guess, I´ve thrown away my 
"Yeah-Linus-will-uses-openSUSE-most-important-thing-in-world-"thinking 
away and actually think of that a fast done interview will screw him 
away maybe.

Let´s wait and see, what he thinks about openSUSE (i hope that he will 
use it, or at least give it a try and let us know, what he thinks. We 
should keep our eyes on our devel-lists and on our bugzilla.)
