Has not been out right said. I think tha assumption is that the
developement of yast2 has taken all of the resources away from yast1. I
have yet to see anything new in yast2 , and there have beenseveral post
that have mentioned that somthing or other had to be set up by yast2 and
not yast1 , some sort of printers I think.I still find my self lost in
yast2 and have had to go back to yast1 to get my box working agien. 

It does seem that yast1 is being "left behind"
