Hi
We got a lot of response from our American friends that Thursday is not a good
date because of Thanksgiving. We apologize for the inconvenience and moved
the meeting to Monday 2006-11-27.
Below the changed invitation, this time also with IRC server information :-)
---
as promised in the last IRC meeting we will have a dedicated IRC meeting about
the Novell/Microsoft deal. We already had questions in the regular IRC
meeting last time, but there might be some questions which are not answered
because of the short time we had, or new questions came up ...
The meeting will take place at the official #opensuse-project IRC channel on
freenode (irc://irc.freenode.net/openSUSE-project)
Monday 2006-11-27 at 18:00 CET (17:00 GMT)
Nat Friedman, Holger Dyroff and AJ are happy to answer all your questions in
the chat.
Please check out the information we have so far, many questions should be
answered there:

Hi,
With todays release of "pam_ldap" we discontinue the security
support for SUSE Linux 9.2.
For the discontinuation schedule of our SUSE Linux products,
please have a look at http://en.opensuse.org/SUSE_Linux_Lifetime
The next discontinued SUSE Linux version will be SUSE Linux 9.3,
around end of April 2007.
SUSE Linux 9.2 was released in begin of October 2004.
It was the first release featuring Delta RPMs, making downloads of
patches even smaller than with the Patch RPMs we used before.
The difference in "Recommended" patches is mostly due to the previous
SUSE Linux 9.1 being the base of SLES 9 and also the first release with
Linux 2.6 kernel and so getting more bugfixes.
Patches (active patches) (difference to SL 9.1):
Total: 581 (278 active) (-58)
Security: 487 (204 active) (-5)
Recommended: 74 (57 active) (-45)
Optional: 20 (17 active) (-8)
Split by type of patch (compared with 9.1 for the ones with large
numbers):
17 kernel (-3)
16 clamav (+3)
14 apache2-mod_php4 (-3)
13 MozillaFirefox (+2)
11 opera ( 0)
10 ethereal ( 0)
9 phpMyAdmin ( 0)
8 squid (-2)
7 apache2 (-2)
7 squirrelmail (+1)
