I think everybody has different needs with his server, so I would like to see a more slim minimal installation. And then everybody could pick their own server packages.
of course, but the key is "installed". on the 9.0 (the last server install I did), nearly all the setup had to be done by hand and not obvious at all.
The second think that could be improved is documentation. I like the documentation from SUSE Linux, but there could be more. Maybe some people could add more some server specific documentation to then next SUSE Linux Version.
I may help. Based on the 9.0, I wrote a hole learning course (alas, for now, it's in french). It's free available here: http://dodin.org/mediawiki/index.php/Formation_Jdd I plan to go to opensuse/SUSE 10.0 when final available and, if needed, I can translate it (for this I would appreciate some help, at least proofreading); It's aimed to very newbie wanting to create his own home server on a dsl line like many can do today jdd -- pour m'écrire, aller sur: http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.net http://arvamip.free.fr
