What's wrong with this picture?
OK. Perhaps I'm getting old. And do not get me wrong. I like choice. But are so many different tools really needed?
Is there a good description of what each tool does that makes it unique from the others?
I think I would find a feature matrix most welcome. Which does and does not do what? Which platform does it run on? What resources will it use and not use? That sort of thing.
Something for the opensuse site?

Actually I think that would be an excellent idea. If I had the technical capabiblities I'd put it together myself. Sadly I don't have anywhere near enough skill to do it. I'd be very grateful if somebody who does have the skill would consider the little project. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== PLEASE DON'T drink and drive it's not clever, it's just stupid.
