So we have to wait for the next SuSE release to get important feature upgrades?
If that is SuSE policy, I will be tempted to look elsewhere.

Good point there - just take the sources and compile your own if it matters that much to you. That's the advantage of Linux - you don't have to wait, if you don't want to! ;-) For me it's much more important to have a secure server than having every new software that appears almost every day. I'll sleep quite well knowing that I don't have the latest openssh as long as my version is safe. That's why I'd rather have the suse people fix all those bugs out there than playing with all those new versions. If that's what you want, then you'll have to compile them yourself or look for a linux-vendor having all the new stuff by the next day and fixing bugs imediatly. Good luck searching! Greetings, Ralf
