Hi Geekos! (...) I think that it's important to note to Leap 42.1 users, that they must update their OS within 6 months, but that can be made easily.

Speaking of which - I think I missed info on how the update will be handled and can't find any on the wiki. I mean - will this be the usual switch the repos to new version and zypper dup, or maybe perhaps like a normal package update with zypper up, being more like a service pack or something?

no SUSE or openSUSE distribution supports 'Service Pack' upgrades using zypper up Both SLE 12 SP2 and openSUSE Leap 42.2 will support 'offline' upgrades, by booting to the SLE/Leap installation media and choosing 'Upgrade' Leap will also support the 'change repos and zypper dup' method, which is very similar to SLE's Service Pack 'zypper migration' method openSUSE does not have exact SLE-like 'zypper migration' support, on account of openSUSE not being coupled to the SUSE Customer Centre at scc.suse.com. We would need that, or a similar source of product metadata in order to be able to centrally orchestrate the availability of functionality like 'zypper migration'. To date, no one has supplied such a service or patches to zypper migration to make such a feature a possibility. It's also worth considering that I've received feedback that suggests that most openSUSE users would find it questionable to register their installations in order to get that functionality compared to the current 'change repos and dup' approach, but that would be a side effect of having such a mechanism, regardless of whether the registration was active (user choosing to register or not) or passive (all openSUSE systems polling the 'metadata server').

Hi all, The first version of the Bulgarian translation is there. I will read it again after a day, and perhaps make some final adjustments. Kind regards, Dimitar Zahariev On вторник, октомври 25, 2016 11:37:16 AM Douglas DeMaio wrote:

Is the fact that Leap 42.2 has GCC 4.8.5 and 5 really much of a selling point for this release? Personally I don't think that's a particularly interesting reason to learn more about Leap.

...

#openSUSE Leap 42.2 has 1,413 new packages. 1,313 more packages than 42.1. 100 packages were dropped.

Not sure we really need to mention the details of the dropped packages, plus I think a percentage figure to go along with the new package number would be more effective. Perhaps something like this would work?

"#openSUSE Leap 42.2 brings in a collection of 1,413 brand new packages, 17% more than 42.1."

...

Choose your desktop environment with #openSUSE Leap. #KDE, #GNOME, #Xfce, #MATE, #Enlightenment or #Cinnamon.

Should we list those that aren't included on the installer (i.e. MATE, Cinnamon)? If so, perhaps we should also include the new LXQt 0.11 release.

We should defiantly list LXQt, regardless of whether they are on the DVD or not all can be installed from the net installer so I think listing them all is fine.

It would be very nice, IMHO, to offer several more desktops in the installation menu. Not this time, of course.

That was planned for this release but unfortunately couldn't be done in time so watch this space for 42.3 -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adeliade Australia, UTC+9:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B

I fully agree to that. That message should be removed. Appstream, GTK and gstreamer are equally uninteresting IMO. What about saying e.g. that we have development environments for a broad range of languages like C, C++, Java, Python, Perl, Ruby, Go, Haskell, Rust, you name it ... Also, what about mentioning docker? Is it not cool anymore?
