I feel now it is the time to clarify the openSUSE product portfolio of the future - from what I heard and read in forums, there is some confusion left!
Leap 42 should be the successor of openSUSE 13.2, what I understood from [1]. If the basis is SLE12 (with some patches), we still talk about a Kernel 3.12.x, and I doubt that actual hardware / chipset / graphics drivers will be addressed properly. So is the target more on the server/enterprise side, where not the latest hardware/Laptops is used?
If you read the discussions on the Factory mailinglist you will see that the discussion about which Kernel will be in Leap 42.1 is still ongoing
What about those users who have reasonably new hardware, but are happy with a released version - and maybe skip one or two releases before upgrading?

I feel we need to tell Jack User, who is lurking around openSUSE (and Linux in general) clearly what the right product is for him. Otherwise we may lose those less experienced users to other distros - would be pity.
Same for the experienced users - why is Leap a step forward, and not a step back (as frequently stated in forums)?
Looks like we have the need for some marketing, IMHO.
Agreed, feel free to start updating the wiki: https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Distribution https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Leap Also the upcoming openSUSE website (http://cyntss.github.io/opensuse-landing-page/) will need updating accordingly, I'm sure cynthia would accept any pull requests sent to https://github.com/cyntss/opensuse-landing-page -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
