1) Provide a clear and unique identity for openSUSE and a good answer to the question "Why openSUSE?"
openSUSE already has a numerous strengths: * it provides a good compromise between stability and up-to-date
packages (as opposed to Ubuntu and Fedora where there is a focus on the latter)
I can't notice the up-to-date things in Ubuntu either. Which is ok given they focus on the first impression experience instead.
Lots of the stuff in Ubuntu is pretty old taken directly from Debian unstable - but they've also been very eager to push pulseaudio, grub2 and some things like that on people - even in their LTS versions.
But neither is practically relevant. These users just want boot and sound working, and grub 0.97 and alsa/dmix have been doing just that for years. What _is_ relevant in that context is - users: KDE 4 over 3.5 - powerusers: Kernel 2.6.31 over 2.6.27 - developers: libwhateverbabble 3.0 rather than 2.x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
