So, I think the obvious choice, assuming the maintainers agree, is to repurpose Evergreen for the SLE-based releases.
openSUSE Evergreen 12.0 -> SLES 12 openSUSE Evergreen 12.1 -> SLES 12 SP1
I don't believe there are any actual version releases of Evergreen,
just repos for older versions of openSUSE, so although the version number moves backwards relative to what Evergreen supported, the name is all new as far as distros go, and carries just the right message/purpose.
That's a nice idea, but it comes with a problem: The Evergreen team has officially stated that they will provide Evergreen support for 13.1 - both on the mailinglist and on https://en.opensuse.org/Evergreen (and quite some people (including me ;-) run servers with 13.1 for that reason).
This means we'll get a naming conflict with SLES 13 SP1 with your proposal :-(
In that case, to fix the name conflicting with Evergreen team, there is another evergreen specie we could try: openSUSE Fir 12.0 -> SLE 12 openSUSE Fir 12.1 -> SLE 12 SP1 Check it out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fir Fortunately, there are plenty green alternatives. :-) Regards, Rick -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
