I may be wrong but RH is where it is today is partially due to CentOS. CentOS, by more traditional business models should have killed RHEL years ago. I mean, who would want to pay for something (SLES/SLED) you can get at no cost (CentOS) right ? The opposite is true now. What we have now is a sizeable pool of RHEL-type system trained IT guys. And guess what these people will recommend for paid-for support Enterprise Linux? I can appreciate the complexity and challenges of coming out with something similar for openSUSE or SUSE-type systems. I only have college-level C/C++ skills. I will still want to help as much as I can. Eric On Wed, Dec 1, 2010 at 9:19 PM, Stephan Kulow <coolo@novell.com> wrote:

This is unfortunately not true. I host my personal web page on a virtual server on hosteurope.de (which btw also offers openSUSE mirroring, so I guess I'm free to "advertise" a bit :) and while I'm happy with it, they only offer free linux versions that last for a bit in their virtual environment.
And Tumbleweed won't be able to fill that gap as openSUSE's kernel needs to fit the kernel outside and they won't do that on a "rolling" base. So I'm stuck with centos 5.5 (they offer ubuntu LTS and debian stable too I think).
