No. I asked for clarification during the presentation and it was clearly stated that this was the technical stuff. What they are gfoing to do is to start TECHNICAL implementation so that _*/IF/*_ (Enough enphasis?) theres is a yes, then it won't take another 6 months or so to launch it. A very reasonable thought when you have worked in a larger orgaisation. Imagine how e would react if there would be an OK in say june on what and how, e.g. only talks about opnSUSE and no technical support. Then the the anouncement, OK, we will have it done by october. Not a good way to do things.

I think the best way to make this easy to distribute is to let a community member do it and then just include it.
There is a lot of overlapping stuff going on with YaST, the mirroring and the buld server, so most likely an implementation will be made already on a YaST level. <snip fill ACK> houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.
