It will not. Tumbleweed and Leap are two different distributions
Ce?!
Not what I deduced from what Stephan Kulow wrote recently.
(I think I said this before, "some into the forest, some for the tinder.....".)
Can we have a clear story on this at some time please.
In my talk at oSC which proposed this idea ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BH99TSrfvq0 ) I gave what I believe to be a very clear story, including multiple slides showing Tumbleweed and the new Regular Release side by side ( https://speakerdeck.com/sysrich/the-future-is-unwritten?slide=37 https://speakerdeck.com/sysrich/the-future-is-unwritten?slide=38 https://speakerdeck.com/sysrich/the-future-is-unwritten?slide=35 ) Our wiki says it very clearly "The result of this would be two distributions, our rolling release (Tumbleweed) which is continually updated and a stable release (42) which is upgraded between versions" - https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:42 And even external watchers like LWN have written detailed articles on the topic that give a very clear story ( https://lwn.net/Articles/648578/ ) So, I think your deductive reasoning needs a little work..
Question 2.
In the normal KDE environment - such as in oS 13.2 - I create 8 virtual desktops ("panels" if you like, or whatever) and I have a different wallpaper for each of these virtual desktops.
I now cannot achieve having different wallpapers in Tumbleweed with this Plasma-Blasta - one wallpaper is assigned to all the desktops.
Is this the norm or is there some secret tweak that one needs to make in order to achieve what I want (different images for each of the 8 desktops)? I think this is a question that's best left to the KDE team. They can answer here, but might be better to try and reach out to them at opensuse-kde@opensuse.org or in the opensuse-kde IRC channel
I understand your reply but, please forgive me, as the "Chairman of the Board", aren't you in the position to know what is being planned for the distribution, have some say in what it will include and in which direction it should go?
Please forgive me, but put your question into perspective. There are thousands of packages as part of our openSUSE's distributions, with several different Desktop Environments Your question was related to whether or not you could get 8 different wallpapers on your 8 different panels in one of those Desktop environments (one which I do not use, I might add) That kind of question, not only desktop-specific, but feature-specific, is not the kind that is going to be best handled in a mailing list for technical discussions regarding the whole distribution. So I gave you two alternatives where you could more likely expect an answer. As an openSUSE Board member, that is precisely part of my job "Facilitate communication with all areas of the community" - ( https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board ) If you think that my role on the openSUSE Board is to direct the technical direction of the project at such detail where I should be telling the KDE Team what they should do with regards to wallpaper options on virtual desktops, then I'm afraid you're sorely mistaken
Thank you Richard for your response. Greatly appreciated.
