	Oh, I understand the .0 release syndrome. And. judging from my experience with 
SuSE 8.0, 9.0 and 10.0 which I still have servers running, SuSE, because of 
their past commitment to quality and reliability, has put out near flawless .0 
releases. In the current climate, I am Hopeful, but not confident, that the 
SuSE tradition of rock-solid .0 releases will continue.

	That is what it is really all about. Does there continue a commitment in the 
openSuSE culture to rock-solid releases or, as you say, is that a thing of the 
past with the change being now "Opensuse is simply a test bed for SLED/SLES", 
as you say. That is what the 11.0 release will be telling about.
