I guess this will be updated for the upcoming SuSE 10.1. I hope it will be in 10.0 ;-)
10.0 is a done deal, we're not going to add version updates for it - we're fixing security bugs only,
This is the thing I would like to have changed: create a package of software, give it a label (10.0) and then go on to create the next package and only do security updates. There is no technical reason why e.g. vim 6.4 (there is a source rpm for it for 10.1 alpha) won't be released for 10.0. I would love to have a stable base (10.0, it's much better than 9.3 to my opinion) and then improve it incrementally. The big plus for e.g. Debian is that you can upgrade by only installing packages without the need to use a e.g. boot cdrom which is not so easy when you have installed you're software on remote locations. Is this strategy open for discussion or is there a Novell veto for it (I could take away some SLES customers)?
