* Create the official openSUSE distribution as reference
implementation
The "as reference implementation" strikes me as a bit odd and I'd
like
to see this a bit better explained. Reference for what?
From wikipedia:
In the software development process, a reference implementation is the
standard from which all other implementations, with their attendant
customizations, are measured, and to which all improvements are added.
The reference implementation is the measuring stick that everybody else
uses. "Are we as good as or better than openSUSE?"
The reference implementation is what's obsolete after a few years
usually. Can't let that happen to openSUSE, happened with Debian, sort
of.
