* Must not smell of Ubuntu
Why?
Apart from the Ubuntu versioning scheme not meeting the first two criteria of my test,
I can understand why it could fail the "100% self-explanatory" one (that's debatable, imho), but the second one is met.
copying Ubuntu would also make openSUSE the laugh of the town.
And why? My impression (and I have no idea if it's right -- on the contrary, I'd be happy to be proven wrong) is that you're saying this because you don't like Ubuntu in some way.
Why change? Even since the days of S.u.S.E it always been x.0, x.1, x.2, x.3 and I think a couple times x.4. We shouldn't change to any other distro naming ways. We are openSUSE, more and more lately I think we are trying to hard to mirror *buntu. Come on, leave it alone.
Exactly. A lot of people are under the impression that openSUSE is trying (poorly) to be Ubuntu - and copying their version scheme would just add to this.
I think what is place works, as a sys admin, I think we should follow the rule that if it ain't broke don't fix it.
There are a large number of problems with the current scheme which have all been touched upon in the thread(s) (I can't remember anymore what was on - project and what was on -factory). But I agree we shouldn't change it unless we are certain we have something that will work 100%. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
