I may be wrong but RH is where it is today is partially due to CentOS.
CentOS, by more traditional business models should have killed RHEL
years ago. I mean, who would want to pay for something (SLES/SLED) you
can get at no cost (CentOS) right ?
The opposite is true now. What we have now is a sizeable pool of
RHEL-type system trained IT guys. And guess what these people will
recommend for paid-for support Enterprise Linux?
I can appreciate the complexity and challenges of coming out with
something similar for openSUSE or SUSE-type systems. I only have
college-level C/C++ skills.
I will still want to help as much as I can.

This is unfortunately not true. I host my personal web page on a virtual server on hosteurope.de (which btw also offers openSUSE mirroring, so I guess I'm free to "advertise" a bit :) and while I'm happy with it, they only offer free linux versions that last for a bit in their virtual environment.
And Tumbleweed won't be able to fill that gap as openSUSE's kernel needs to fit the kernel outside and they won't do that on a "rolling" base. So I'm stuck with centos 5.5 (they offer ubuntu LTS and debian stable too I think).
