Same for the experienced users - why is Leap a step forward, and not a step back (as frequently stated in forums)?
Citations, please. I am in the forums daily, and while I don't read every message in every thread, something said "frequently" in the forums is something I'd be very surprised if I missed - and I haven't seen that stated there.
Please see (in german, sorry) http://www.heise.de/forum/Open-Source/News-Kommentare/OpenSuse-Leap-42-1-Nam...
That's a readers feedback. And the contributers to this news page are not always the best informed. There're a lot of polemics. Plus it's mainly information from second hand. And as others wrote on this list the openSUSE Leap 42.1 thing is still in discussion. Unfortunately we already managed to scare some contributers off. Thefore please stay all tuned and express your concerns. As the discussion regarding the failing/ missing supoirt for newer hardware showed this is all work in progress and In addition the main article was written by Thorsten Leemhuis who in the time before he started to work at Heise several years was active with Fedora. His constant ignorance and more or less subtile bashing of openSUSE or SUSE you can not only read in between the lines. With more polite words, I consider him anything else than neutral. Only compare how nicely he's able to spell the word RedHat while he's not able or I expect not willing to use openSUSE or SUSE how it is written since at least five years. But hey, I have the camelion sitting on my shoulder since quite some time. Thefore my comment might be a bit too green. ;) Cheers, Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team + SUSE Labs SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
