Am ende des Jahres "sollte" openSUSE 10.2 erscheinen. In einigen "Fachzeitschriften" wurde schon darüber berichtet das es auser einigen Upgrades nichts neues geben wird.
Das ist falsch!
Alleine das Software Raid nun über BIOS geht ist neu und viele andere Neuerungen gibt es auch. Hier mal ein kleiner Auszug davon.
