That was my belief as well until I read Joseph's statement.. Just
trying to provide feedback that the website isn't clear on this
distinction...then again, the whole Factory thing is sloppy as well.

Does anyone else find the wording (below) causing more confusion
rather than clarifying the distinctions? Or is it just me?

http://en.opensuse.org/Factory_Distribution :
"The Factory Distribution is the current state of the development for
the next SUSE Linux distribution. The Development Releases of SUSE
Linux (like Alpha, Beta or RC releases) are snapshots from this
distribution. This means the Factory Distribution can be in any state,
while the Development Releases do get some basic testing before the
release."

Mailing list descriptions:
opensuse for general discussion about the openSUSE (development) project.
opensuse-factory for discussion about the latest development version
of SUSE Linux. That includes the Factory Distribution and alpha/beta
versions.
