openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 8 is official announced now. It is available at http://software.opensuse.org/developer
Looking forward to your feedback.
I did both a full DVD x86_64 new installation with Gnome default and KDE pattern added, and an 'online' i686 'zypper dup' with Gnome. Both installations worked fine on my existing multiboot configurations. The latter 'zypper dup' I tried for the first time, was impressive simple and convenient. I got a single, temporary stop, but retry after the following message, 'zypper dup' continued: Failed to provide Package libgvfscommon0-1.3.6-1.1. Do you want to retry retrieval?

Switching between Gnome and KDE sessions worked fine from the GDM panel selection menu. Login to KDE 4.3.1 desktop displayed a KDE session manager error message: Could not find 'gnome-starter.bsh' executeable. I'm not sure what this message really mean. Else I'm glad to see that the M6 and M7 bugs for Gnome Shutdown/Restart and YaST startup are fixed in M8. On the down side I noticed that my reported M7 Bug 538839: 'Network Manager - OpenVPN Gnome connection failure' still does exist. Tried again to import my existing OpenVPN setup - but the connections fails. This issue was fixed earlier during the SLED11 beta, and NM OpenVPN worked afterwards also on openSUSE 11.1. It must be fixed and useable in 11.2 too. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=538839 Terje J.
