Though release times have varied from 6-months to a year or so, we have always had a stable, traditional Linux distribution. I would like to see that continue.
I will not use ALP or micros. After 20 years, SUSE's design decisions will have simply pushed the normal Linux user out in favor of models it can more easily monetized.
While I can't fault the business logic, I have no desire to use a virtualized or containerized distro and I am not alone.
The Linarite concept is pretty much classical distribution as you know it, we'd just reuse sources/packages from ALP, just like we do from SLES nowdays. It's bit tricky as ideally we'd like to base it on Granite (only available in 2024/2025), but for now we'll have to work with the best ALP representation that is available (synced) to OBS. As of today ALP == Factory.
