On a good note, I'm really happy to hear that some discussions have been going on about Novell marketing with regard to openSUSE. It would be really nice if we could know the results of those discussions.
I thought I'd just raise http://www.novell.com/products/opensuse/comparative.html also as one of the items that needs to be changed.
"Linux users and technical enthusiasts, experienced computer users and community developers" first lets change the distro to meet the qualifications outside this list. you can't market strawberry jam and deliver only mashed strawberries and a cup off sugar. 10.3 has to hit the market running without a bunch of press saying "it's great ,but...." the press needs to be convinced that the only "buts" are about the linux OS as a whole like , "no native m$ media support"
There also seems to be some other misconceptions in that comparison, like "Retail" instead of mentioning online download as well. A little unsure about the "limited availability" of security patches. These are guaranteed, right?
Kind thoughts,
