The "when's the next version out?" question is moot. Timings, 6 month gaps, 4
month gaps, etc. establish patterns, but eventually don't matter. It'll be
ready when they're ready to ship it.

There was interesting quote in that article though:

"Will it be possible to run applications that are certified on UnitedLinux on
a coming SuSE Linux Professional/Personal [distribution]: Yes."

Since UnitedLinux is based on SuSE Linux, and SuSE's technical guys are doing
all the integration work for UnitedLinux, it really does look like United
Linux is just SuSE Linux by another name.

He says UnitedLinux is for servers, yet SuSE's Professional and Personal
distros will run all UnitedLinux applications. That seems to say that
UnitedLinux is actually a subset of SuSE Linux. It feels like a good time to
know SuSE Linux - it seems I already have a lot of experience with
UnitedLinux!
