Another important point is that we intend to split what was a more generic, everything is closely intertwined into two parts: One smaller hardware enabling piece, a kind of "host OS", and the and the layer providing and supporting applications, which will be container (and VM) based.
You mean that we users will have to run our openSUSE Linux in a virtualized machine, instead of our real hardware machine?
That's not at all what I understood from the paragraph you quoted. To my eyes, it says the operating system will be separated into two parts: 1) a small core including only what is needed to interact with the hardware and to manage it, no matter whether that's real or virtual hardware (somehow similar to MicroOS[1]) 2) all the applications and user-space tools that will run as containers or virtual machines on top of that minimal core, way more isolated from each other and from the core compared to a current Leap in which all pieces are interconnected.
This is nuts.
Please explain.
Better now? Cheers. [1] https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:MicroOS -- Ancor González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE Software Solutions
