I feel really sorry, but I'm a regular reader of this list since 2 month and I haven't seen any discussion on this. I know it's "every 6 month", but I should have ask "Do you have a link to the actual roadmap" ?
The real un-answered question (to me at least) is how bought-over by Novell will effect Suse 9.3 release or subsequent releases. We know Novell has other Linux offering (Novell Linux Desktop). Novell also bought Ximian. It is unclear as to what is Novell's linux strategy for future releases. I haven't seen an announcement from Novell out-lining a future linux releases roadmap describing how will SuSE evolve and how it will related to NLD (and maybe some of the Ximian offerings that are also now owned by Novell).
Well, at least one part is really easy to straighten out. NLD is not in any way trying to grab grounds from SuSE Pro series, it's more like a "SuSE Office version", aimed mainly to integrate desktops with Novell's eDirectory based networks, whatever the server base is. SuSE Pro series is not affected in any major way by the NLD version, it's more of a "threat" to Windows as the desktop o/s.. :) All of this is pretty clearly stated as well on the Novell website. As for the SuSE Pro cycle, just wait and see.. :) What's the big hurry? Anders Norrbring
