The death of OpenSUSE is that it's part of the IBM/RHEL vortex now,
just like CentOS. Using it, you're basically an unpaid beta tester
for IBM. Eventually they won't need that so much - and that entire

Are you saying that RedHat has bought SUSE?
I see no reference to this in the Wikipedia articles about SuSE and
openSUSE.

Yes, EQT seems to be the current owner. Strange! I could have bet I heard rumours about them selling it to a UK private equity company, but maybe the deal didn't happen in the end.
When I was working there, they had a great retirement plan. 20% of your on target earnings (regardless of it you met your target or not) they put away in an retirement account for you. The only company I heard that had a better plan was Oracle where the figure was 30%.
I don't know if OpenSUSE is upstream of SLE like Rawhide/Fedora are
upstream of RHEL. No particular reason but I missed the leap from 13.2 to
Leap and eventually went to Fedora on that box.
