Don't forget that SLES is openSUSE just with older software for stability.
First of all, don't forget that SLES is just one of the SUSE offerings. They also offer SLED (their version of the Desktop.) openSUSE is used as a base for the SLE product line. They derive their server and their desktop offerings from us. Therefore, we're more of an upstream project than a base project. I think this is an important distinction we need to start emphasizing, because there are lots of potential spinoffs from openSUSE that don't even end up in SLE products. So let's start sayi that we are the UPSTREAM project.
Yes, it´s openSUSE 11.1 right, but SLES isn´t maintained by the openSUSE community, or not? So I prefer saying that openSUSE is a desktop-distro. Here in my hometown are really much people who just want that their computers "run" so, openSUSE is my system of choice and I ever say, that´s some much easier using Linux, espacially openSUSE. It´s hard but some people are thinking of using Linux. I hope that the release of 11.4 can make them using openSUSE.
For the identity:
And that works for your particular market that you work with. Beauty of openSUSE. We can market it as a desktop and we can market it as a server. Plenty of people do market it as a server. Let's just be careful not to say that openSUSE is *just* a desktop server. It is really... anything you want it to be. Bryen
We´re a large and healthy community, that develops one of the best and popular linux distributions of the world: openSUSE
