The openSUSE Release team has over time received quite some requests to provide regular refreshes of install media. Some of these 15.X requests date back to the 15.2 development cycle. The most recent request* is from openSUSE Board on behalf of DocB. The idea is to incorporate released updates into "refreshed" install images. Having Quarterly Update (QU) setup* done early and doing this regularly will ensure that we will react timely to various issues affecting bootable media. **Identification** Images will have 15.3-N in the filename to distinguish from the original GA images. N is the incremental number currently set to 2. **QU Schedule and Availability** Leap 15.3 Quarterly Update 1 File (*15.3-2*) are already available at download-o-o and is ready to be mirrored. See our roadmap* for more information about the schedule. get.opensuse.org uses -Current symlinks which already point a the 15.3- 2 content. The idea is that the user would always download the latest openSUSE Leap 15.X image available to the date. I'd like to also inform the community that a request to provide a self- update repository for the installer in 15.4 was declined on a regular feature review meeting, as we believe that the QU approach provides a sufficient way to regularly update the installer in openSUSE Leap.

Something's not right. I'm getting 404s on these (from SE USA): http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.3-N... http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/leap/15.3/iso/openSUSE-Leap-15.3-N...

I don't think all the addresses in the announcement mails are current either. Hello Felix

(reducing lists, to not create noise to mirror admins) what particular address do you have in mind? These were the original lists that I was targetting To: opensuse-announce@opensuse.org CC: opensuse-project@opensuse.org , mirror@opensuse.org Cheers!

Correct address is security-announce@lists.opensuse.org

That's a different mailinglist. opensuse-announce is announce@lists.opensuse.org nowadays. That said - AFAIK the old opensuse-$something@opensuse.org addresses still work and forward to the new @lists.opensuse.org addresses.

Und der Rest wird ueber den hotplug Krempel "quasi-manuell" geladen (da nur (vom Distributor) verscriptet). Yippie-ah-yea-ah, Schweinebacke, also DAS nennt ich Fortschritt.

Yep.

I suspect the OP did not get posted to that list. Supposedly I'm subscribed and did not get the post in that list. I can not look this instant on the archive, FF down for updating.

Verified, the OP didn't get posted on the announce mail list. https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/announce@lists.opensuse.org/ -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from oS Leap 15.2 x86_64 (Minas Tirith))

Thanks for driving this, and congratualtions to all involved for the great result! It is a huge benefit for the community!

Lets spread the word in the media! I already shared this with doug, let me forward email to marketing mailing list as well. We could use some extra noise :-)

Cheers Axel
