[New: openFATE 310519] Support
Feature added by: Anomyous Anomyous (jcat123) Feature #310519, revision 1 Title: Support Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Anomyous Anomyous (jcat123) Description: Every release that is the start of a new version (XX.0, e.g. 11.0) should have a lifetime lasting until the next major version.1+2 months. For example, openSUSE 12.0 would be supported from its release to two months after 13.1 This would make openSUSE effective for businesses who don't have time to upgrade their operating systems every 18 months. Plus, don't forget that they have to re-train their support services with every release. This is a critical disadvantage to openSUSE against Ubuntu. If openSUSE had this, along with YaST, it would compete very well in the Linux world as it once did in the early-to-mid-2000's. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310519
