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" true
