3. The opensuse build service is *ALPHA* software. Your point being what? Unless I was somehow sleeping for a few years SUSE binaries are still compiled with gcc and packaged as RPM's.
My point is that SuSE would use *ALPHA* software for a *production* build system and part of the chain of the package distro system (packages have to be built first, right?). Doesn't strike me as very prudent.
This is a rather important point. They go out of their way to say that the build system is Alpha software, yet they're utilizing it for a production system. This is rather odd thinking.
Are SuSE releases meant for production servers or has it become unstable fedora? SLES is meant for servers, SUSE linux (SLD) is meant for the desktop.
