[opensuse-factory] Factory not prominently enough featured on opensuse.org?
Just a comment from Mr. LWN
Said grumpy editor has actively looked for an opensuse development distribution a few times, with no luck. The folks who create opensuse.org don't make the factory distribution easy to find - the "latest development version" link does not go anywhere near it. I suspect I'm not the only one who has come up empty-handed in this search. Nonetheless, I clearly blew my research and apologize for any resulting confusion.
why he stated that there was no publicly available development version of openSUSE available. It's true that it is not that easy to find: When I went to opensuse.org, download, then the link "latest development version" points to 10.3RC1 A prominent link to factory might help to prevent this from happening too often? Maybe there are some other places where links to factory might be added (but I think it is properly referenced at the main wiki page). Ciao Joerg PS: The article on lwn.net will become available in a week for non-subscribers (The Grumpy Editor's guide to (some) development distributions). Apart from that goof, the article was a nice read. PPS: Googling for: opensuse development version showed the (good) development version page and the ("bad") download page as its first two hits in that order -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer@loplof.de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
