The scheduling decision when SLES 11 will happen have not been made. Rough lines are likely discussed already, but not down to my level.
Ok, so there might be hope that it will share the code base with 11.0 :-)
In general we try to also try capture Features in the Service Packs too,
Hmm.
As for the feature things, perhaps this is something we should really look into doing for the Service Packs too.
You definitely do a lot with the service packs, also the latest hardware drivers etc. But I guess for major upgrades like switching from tomcat 5.0 to 5.5 a SP isn't the right place... Not talking about the kernel features like unionfs, gcc 3 -> 4 or (and that's often very important for our developers) a glibc upgrade. That's what breaks everything :-)
For SP2 we already update php5 to 5.2.latest for instance (but I am afraid for other features it is likely too late already).
We do appreciate that, no question! But I still hope for a continued 2-year release cycle. And if you know some of the guys at higher levels who make those decisions, feel free to forward them my email as a (hopefully appreciated :-)) customer feedback.
Crispin is unfortunately no longer with Novell...
Uh, yes, apparmor, I missed that this was him... cu, Frank -- Dipl.-Inform. Frank Steiner Web: http://www.bio.ifi.lmu.de/~steiner/ Lehrstuhl f.
