Moin, 

with regards to the discontinuation mail for openSUSE 10.3 [1] sent out by 
Marcus the other day I'd like to clarify the changes in the maintenance period 
of openSUSE. 

openSUSE will shorten the maintenance period to 2 versions plus 2 months 
which translates with the current release cycle of 8 months to 18 months 
instead of 24 months we had with openSUSE 11.1 and previous releases. 

With that we now can guarantee an overlap time from a maintenance perspective
which gives enough time to update machines to newer versions. 

Best
Michael
