My intent was naming the initiative.
I think I agree with Bryen: It seems important to first identify the rough goal of the initiative before naming it since the former definitely can have a strong influence on the latter.
So far I have seen three different ideas mentioned
. openSUSE Server Edition, somewhat alike the GNOME and KDE media . openSUSE LTS, longer term security and possibly other updates . codename "openSLES", a CentOS equivalent [...] But still, right now, "openSLES" is the only option I'm sure we could develop.
The first option mentioned by Gerald ("openSUSE Server Edition") is something that could be easily done by a small number of people. IMO it would be taking the existing packages, creating a media and perhaps adjusting the installation work flow and adjusting patterns - and then testing for sure. This would be a one-time effort for each release and something a couple of users are interested in as well, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
