The specific problem with the Live CDs was related to the change in /usr that is part of 12.2. Sounds strange. No real analysis of potential consequences of such a course of action? A spur of the moment decision by someone without any peer review

Really immaterial now as the damage has already been done from what you state. You are off-base here, Basil. There was long voluminous discussion re "/usr" and no relation to "Tumbleweed" which *just* works and I can say that from first hand experience. Don't understand your reference to "Tumbleweed" here, might as well have said Fedora or *buntu.
If you are unable to grasp the full context of what is being written then stay out of the conversation. Re the reference to Tumbleweed: where is there a claim that it doesn't "*just* works"? There is no mention in any shape or form about Tumbleweed's efficacy or otherwise. Of course you don't understand the reference to Tumbleweed here - because you don't read.

There was no formal approval process to make Tumbleweed allowed. It just happened, through the goodness of our community efforts. Not everyone uses it, some still prefer to go release-to-release, and others prefer a rolling release. /unquote Has the light come on yet?
