will we get to vote on the ability to still use YaST without all the colorful distractions and bandwidth? ...
No not Yast.
In 2010 there was a big meeting about Poject Bretzn. They were discussing about creating a software center using a common theme that could be applied to a number of other distros.
I read that there was talk about taking the code for the Ubuntu Software Center and applying it to the style of openSUSE.
I honestly don't like the Ubuntu Software Center (arguably, I'd be running Ubuntu if I did). To me, all the bells and whistles YAST provides (and YAST isn't alone here, think Synaptic) are very useful. Maybe it's because I like being able to source-install something (arguably that's not a very common use case). Maybe it's because I am actually interested in browsing the dependency graph, or checking changelogs (arguably not everybody - rather not many - are).
In any case, I would consider such a "Software Center" a step backwards in comparison with YAST.
What does people love so much about it? Could that be added to YAST? Just a thought
Personally. I don't like the Ubuntu Software Center. However, I would like to see Yast beautified. Someone added a slider that appears substandard. Yast Package Manager uses rows where the height should be increased. Screanshots would be nice I really hope that they improve the appearance and speed of Yast. Yes I know zypper is faster and it's the best text-based package installer of all distros. -- Cheers!
