I say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" all the time. Still people install each and every version that comes along and complain at the same time that they are forced to upgrade so often. Sigh.
Well, keep in mind that Novell / SuSE have only a 2-year commitment to each release. Those who require package updates and don't want or have the ability to build everything themselves are pretty much forced to upgrade.
OK, after two years. Not after 6 months (10.0). If the distribution is not suported anymore, I consider that 'broke'. If it is broke, you need to fix it, but (wait for it) ... if it ain't broke, don't fix it. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit. Sie ist das Kostbarste, was wir haben, denn es ist unwiederbringliche Lebenszeit.
