Maybe some ignorance at the management level. You're right that we're no longer able to fix the errors that have been made prior to the 10.1 release - so at the moment we can only explain what happened, we can try to provide information to work around some of the problems, and we can try to track down all the issues and help to solve them. I am sure that many developers at Novell/SUSE currently work on fixing the remaining problems. Nevertheless, it's a bad situation and I am sure SUSE Linux has lost some reputation. Therefore, from the community's point of view it's also important to ensure that we will not face a situation like that again! This means, for instance, it's important to convince those people at Novell/SUSE in charge of the release that major changes in a late beta stage are not acceptable from a user's perspective. In our company, nobody would come up with an idea to make major changes in such a late stage of the development process - this was like calling for problems and trouble...
