Just thinking out loud -- maybe it would be better to focus on core system (thing to be defined) and support it, but support it from A do Z, instead of providing thousands of packages (compare it to Apple, they took a bit of BSD, but made well use of it). Then it would be possible to provide better compatibility, hardware support, and incremental upgrades (and realease would mean just: snapshot of last month set of packages).
I have a strong feeling that the first approach is exactly what SLED does, while we live on the "bleeding edge" of things. I've always gone by the mantra that I should have my production systems at least one version back, unless the current version is very stable. I'll hold off until 10.3 releases a few bugfixes. I have it in VMWare and all seems well, but it ain't running my systems at home until I know it works right. :P --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
