With 13.1 going Evergreen (long term security updates) wouldn't that be a better choice?
Yes, you're right, 13.1 is probably the better choice. For all new installations, I use 13.2 myself, but I'm not overly concerned about updates.

I do not understand this sorry. At least as long as the conditions of EOL do not change, for him, 13.2 is the better choice even for updates. Provided there is no tipo. 13.1 goes off support (without updates NOW and is partially maintained with security updates). So if you run a server Maybe but.... EOL page https://en.opensuse.org/Lifetime#openSUSE_Leap_and_13.x That states:
EXPECTED First Quarter of 2017 (2 months after release of Leap 42.2) for 132 but for 13.1 with evergreen says: extended community maintenance, support end is currently November 2016.That is: up to the first quarter of 2017 you will get offical security updates for 13.2. So 13.2 is the better choice AFAIK.
Evergreen will extend the supported lifetime of 13.1 for another year

I guess we not know for sure until 13.1 is officially accepted into the Evergreen project. Based on the previos supported versions the was a 2-3 years support lifetime not just one. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
