Which is why I do not get why not shipping 2.0 as official update such an 
issue. The whole thing started because although openSUSE never did so you 
asked to officially ship every update of the stable branch. And further if 
distros won't do that but simply pick one version of that stable branch and 
stay with it it would not make sense to maintain such a stable branch.
