It could be built with (and include) gcc 3.1 (or 3.1.1) rather than 2.95.3. It could have the latest sendmail and bind. Apache 2.x has now been released, so it could have 2.0.39 rather than 1.3.x. I am sure that there are many other packages which have newer versions than shipped with SuSE 8.0 or available via YOU.
At rpm4 to it as well.
i think that an upgrade to gcc3 and rpm4 would both require a bump in the major version (up to 9.0) because they would both break backward compatibility with 8.0. that's one of the reasons redhat is still using gcc '2.96' in 7.3, while the next version (currently 'limbo', but will be 8.0) will have gcc3.1. -- trey
