Thank you very much Christian, This is very helpful, I am happy to hear that the opensuse project is still going. You mention Provo - if that means SuSE US HQ in UT - it probably explains the state of the web site and difficulty to fix/simplify/improve/change anything. If I may have one follow up question: 15.2 road map will be based on SLE 15 SP2 ==> the kernel choice will follow enterprise community <-- do we know the kernel version chosen already? Thanks again for your answer and very happy end of the year time, Tomas On Sat, 2019-12-14 at 23:34 +0100, Christian Boltz wrote:

I am just worried about the project: * no news/announcements
I see regular announcements on both factory and announcement mailing lists.
To be fair, the question was about the website https://www.opensuse.org/ and not about other channels. There is the word NEWS part way down the page, but its not a link and there's no news under it.
I'm afraid that's a side effect of a known technical problem. Whenever the wordpress running news.opensuse.org gets updated, the RSS feed breaks (it "just" has some additional whitespace, but that's enough to make it invalid XML). Unfortunately the admin in Provo isn't very fast in fixing it :-(
The news section in www.opensuse.org tries to use exactly that RSS feed, and because it's broken since at least a month, the news section is empty since then.
@Cynthia: Maybe you can include a check and display at least a link to news.o.o instead of the empty section when the feed is broken?
If you say that's reasonable and continue looking you find an active link to https://news.opensuse.org/ at the bottom of the page but that seems to be a random blog page rather than an organized news page abot future plans.
news.opensuse.org is the official news page of openSUSE - and since we have news from various areas of the project, it probably doesn't look as organized as you'd want it to be ;-)
* 15.0 packages seems to be no longer updated, although 15.1 is still updated
Why do you expect updates for a version that is officially end of support?
There's nothing about 15.0 on the page, or about 15.2.
That might be because 15.0 just went EOL, and 15.2 is still under development.
* will there will be openSuse 15.2, is it being developed? When?
OMG :( Did you try as much as google for "opensuse leap release schedule"? Did you look at factory mailing list where new Leap 15.2 builds are announced pretty regulary? Did you try as much as looking on download.opensuse.org?
As above, they aren't the page under discussion.
Please have a look here: https://en.opensuse.org/Lifetime https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Roadmap

PS @Tomas (to avoid another mail): If Richard stepping down is the last openSUSE news you read, then you'll have to read quite some things on news.opensuse.org which happened since then. For example, we have a (not-so-)new chairman, and the first phase of the board elections also started.
