The german version will ship mid-december. The international version will follow shortly after.
2. Will XFree86 _3.3.3_ Included?
Yes.
3. Which kernel version? 2.0.36 or 2.2 ??
The default will be 2.0.36. You will also be able to install 2.1.xxx as an option - though we will only support the 2.0.36
If it 2.0.36 based - will It 2.2-READY? What about default C Compiler, libs and so on?
Yes, it will be 2.2-ready. The Compiler will be egcs 1.1.1 for C++, in combination with gcc 2.7.2.1 for C-Programs.
4. What are other big news 'bout 6.0 ?
It will be based on the new C library, glibc2. Check our WWW-Site for further info.
5. What about libc5-applications support?
They will still work. :)

Here's an answer about SuSE 6.0 from a couple of articles previously in the mailing list. As to 2.1.x kernels, am unsure myself, will probably play with it and see for myself as I need 16750 support to get the proper performance from my external ISDN TA...
