Do you see any problems or enhancements for the proposal?
I would love to tell them the openSUSE community looks forward to the SUSE implementation for the next release (12.3). May I?
Based on the feedback on this mailing list as well on opensuse-project, this is a clear "go" for the proposal.
Olaf, Vojtech: Happy hacking - we look forward to the code for the next openSUSE releaes! ;)
thanks,

If I buy a Windows 8 laptop / desktop before May 2013, will I be able to install openSUSE 12.2 on it? If I buy a machine from Dell with Ubuntu on it, will I be able to install openSUSE 12.2 on it? I don't particularly like Dell hardware, but if that's the only way I can get a modern Linux besides VMware Workstation or VirtualBox, that's where I'll end up.
This ancient workstation is not long for this world. I'm at the point now where I'm pricing things out. I could just let it die and live with the year-old laptop till openSUSE 12.3, I suppose. ;-)
Ed, I think the only real question is "With a new UEFI capable PC, will I be able to dual boot Windows 8 with openSUSE 12.1 and/or 12.2?" Do we know the answer to that yet? Or do we need to wait for more time to pass to figure that out? Is SUSE / openSUSE going to make any effort to back port the new UEFI compatible solution to 12.1 / 12.2 to support this? Note: Speaking for just me, I can live without that dual boot option. I seriously doubt I jump on the Win 8 bandwagon before 2014 or later. By then I can dual boot with 12.3 or 13.0 or whatever.
