["Joe(theWordy)Philbrook" <jtwdyp@xxxxxxxx>]

Back aways a kind hearted soul on this list gave me an extensive list of 
working repositories. Which list included several with a description that
included the term "openSUSE BuildService". Which I initially presumed to be
a collection of source code repositories. But since I dislike guessing I
goggled around and found a wiki. Which seems to indicate that software
developers can use openSUSE BuildService as a tool to package/distribute
their {GPL only?} software for multiple distributions??

It said something about the resulting binary packages being made available
to the public. So now I'm thinking maybe the "openSUSE BuildService"
repositories like, for example:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/xfce/openSUSE_11.3/
may actually contain the resulting binary packages compiled specifically for
openSUSE 11.3??? 

Would somebody kindly let me know if I got any of that right?
