Hi There seems a lot of doubt about using leap. As novices, we see it as taking over from the opensuse we were used to. There seems no alternative. If you want opensuse it has to be leap from now on.
It is worrying members here who know what they are talking about are being cautious about using it. Our teacher just told us a story about opensuse 11 which contained an experimental versions but no one knew about it. Is this the same with leap? Leap 42.1 is not a beta version
Leap 42.1 is a final product of a stable regular release
While Basil is very vocal, it's important to recognise that his voice does not reflect the intention of those contributors working on Leap, nor does it necessarily reflect the opinions of the majority of users of openSUSE
If you notice I simply mention that I do not use Leap 42.1 but have it installed on my laptop to experiment with - which is the usual advice - but using other terminology - given to people when they ask questions about a new release of openSUSE. That usual advice has always been to wait for a while while the new release irons out its wrinkles before using it on a production machine. Stating what I said contains no hints of any wrongdoing or lack of expertise of those programmers who made Leap possible. As far as whether or not to use Leap is totally at the discretion of any user: whether they use Leap on their production machines immediately or wait a while while the wrinkles are ironed out it totally and absolutely up to them and I, nor anyone else, can influence their decisions. The only sway which can influence their actions is common sense.
