In the original posting by Richard Brown [1], he very specifically
said, "SUSE is preparing to pro-actively release a significant portion
of the SUSE Linux Enterprise source code, including a regular stream
of maintenance updates, to the openSUSE Project." Thank you, Richard,
for your precision. From that, I understood that SUSE LLC was
releasing the sources used to create SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop
_and_ SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. Is that a correct understanding?
If yes, please, everyone, use the phrase "SLE sources" to fully
communicate what is being generously provided by SUSE LLC. Using the
phrase "SLES sources" leads me to deduce one would _have_ to add other
sources to properly support a desktop (laptops included)
implementation.
SLE is used to refer to common code that both SLES and SLED are based
upon, but I would stress that in that sentence there is also another
word - ... release a *significant* portion of the ... So speculations
are possible, but the easiest thing to do is to take a look yourself:
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/SUSE:SLE-12:GA
I see Gnome Shell, so desktop should be there and AFAIK, SLED uses Gnome
only.
