when is 6.3 going to be on the ftp site?

Probably not until the retail distribution chain is saturated. /off marketing blurb

Lest we forget, SuSE is in the business of making money. Would you, as a business person, give away your product first, then sell it? Secondly, have you ever tried to access Red Hat's FTP servers, or their mirrors, after they release a new version? It's nigh impossible. -- George Toft http://www.georgetoft.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

No, it's smart business. I saw the 6.3 Beta, and it blew. I have faith, however, that SuSE Linux 6.3 Retail (and subsequently FTP and Eval) will be a very high-quality product(s) because of their relatively long development cycles. -- -=|JP|=- Jon Pennington | Atipa Linux Solutions -o) jpennington@atipa.com | http://www.atipa.com /\\ Kansas City, MO, USA | 816-241-2641 _\_V -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
