We've briefly discussed during the last IRC meeting about what went bad in 10.2 and how we can do this better for future products, especially 10.3. I'm mainly interested in process feedback - and not on feedback that package x is broken (unless that shows a process problem).
What I miss is a more general statement about the future of openSUSE releases, in other words information about upcoming (major) changes and developments. This might not be of particular interest for the average home user but I am sure that professional users would really appreciate it since it might affect their work environment (in both ways, positive and negative and it's always helpful if you know what to expect) and it might give a first impression of features in and possible problems with future enterprise versions (provided that Novell keeps the approach that an openSUSE release forms the basis of an enterprise release).
That approach is kept.
I know about http://en.opensuse.org/Factory/News which lists (some) changes in the current development version of openSUSE with respect to the previous stable version. This is a good starting point - however, it could be enhanced (and it should be distributed via e.g. "announce" mailing list). From my point of view it would be good to know more about where openSUSE is heading in general, say "the global picture". Maybe such things are discussed on the factory mailing list, I don't know, unfortunately it's almost impossible to follow all discussion groups...
We're looking right now at the global picture and discuss some ideas that have been floating around for 10.3. Once that's done and put together, I'll share it - and then let's discuss it, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
