I'm still unsure if counterproposals are desired (or even desirable), but I've created a wiki page for my proposal for the perfect strategy for openSUSE:
* Making sure as much as possible just works out of the box * Having good and sane defaults so the user can do what he wants to do * Focus on providing tools for being productive/creative * Providing admin tools that are powerful yet (reasonably) easy
I think all of these are already implemented, and that's the point of win for openSUSE. (Though I wonder what goes on in the maintainer's heads when they decide to make the default xterm background that strange yellow instead of leaving it to linuxcon or upstream's default, i.e. gray/black).
* Going out of our way to support old hardware and non-mainstream architectures
I cannot agree with this. Support for older hardware comes so cheap in Linux, you need not bother about it. Just leave the kernel options on, and the poweruser, being a poweruser, is happy enough. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
