Michael, just answer the following honestly:
- What is the next release called: 11.4 or 12.0? Why?
The next release will be on March 2011 and it will be openSUSE 12.0 I can remember that from a Slide Presentation (What's New in openSUSE 11.2) for LinuxTag-2009 by Andreas Jaeger.
That was a proposal for the version number, nothing cast in stone ;)
- Why did we call 11.0 11.0 and not 10.4?
Maybe because our opeSUSE releases and support life-cycle ends every 3 releases. I mean after 24 months openSUSE ends the older version support to keep alive the newer and the other two oldest (e.g: 11.3, 11.2 and 11.1 will end support for 11.0. It was the same for 11.2, 11.1 and 11.0 finished support for 10.3)
I don't see how that fits together. And we're at 18 months now...
