If you want it simpler: some packages in Leap 42.3 /may/ be the same version as in Leap 42.1.
OK, I reread the lifetime information of openSuSE. https://en.opensuse.org/Lifetime
You're right, I don't always get the absolutely newest version of a software, but therefor I get versions which are longer tested and therefor supposedly more stable than tumbleweed. Fine for me.
Still I don't need the word "leap" in the version numbering ;)
Yes, you do. Or we do. Because Leap is different than the previous stable versions up to 13.2. It is made quite differently. We need some word to mark the departure, be it Leap, be it another word. I'd prefer not to suffer another name/version style change, and thus keep the word "leap" in the name. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
