Tumbleweed is not an experimental distribution Leap is not 'the main' distribution of the openSUSE Project
hmm, what is *the main* distribution of the openSUSE Project then? Call me dumb, but I always thought, openSUSE 13.x were gone by now...
There is no 'main' distribution.
From an emotional perspective, asking many of us whether Leap or Tumbleweed is the "main" is like asking a parent which child is the "main" one.
From a less emotional perspective, there is no statistic or metric that supports the argument that either distribution is the "main" that cannot be countermanded by an equally valid metric that supports the other.
Sure, you can probably argue that Leap has more users. So is that the main? No, because Tumbleweed has many more contributions and contributors. But that doesn't make it the main either. Leap couldn't exist if it wasn't for SLE - does that make SLE the "main" distribution? No, that would be nonsense, but no more nonsensical than picking Tumbleweed or Leap and declaring them as the "main". openSUSE's distributions only exists in a meaningful away for anybody because we do NOT have a "main" distribution but instead create multiple offerings symbiotically, built by and for the people who contribute to them. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
