Maybe it was disccus before, but i'd have some question, if SuSE now is openSuSE, how suse generate revenue ? What else that will sell ? Support ? Suse Linux Enterprise ? I ask this because I really like suse, and I hope this one will stand last but as many business, they need revenue, right ?
First, you are misspelling SUSE. Please stop it if you are doing deliberately. Sorry... :) I mean openSUSE ..
openSUSE is a community project. It is not obsoleting or replacing anything.
Ok, so when it comes suse 10.0, will it be commercial ? I still dont get this one.
10.0 will be in both versions. A retail box (SUSE Linux 10.0) and the OSS version (openSUSE 10.0). SUSE Linux 10.0 will have the shiny box and handbooks and the non-OSS packages (and perhaps more benefits I do not know right now). In the future, both openSUSE and SUSE Linux will diverge more, once we get to Stage2 or Stage3 of the openSUSE project. Ciao, Marcus
