The openSUSE Project, a worldwide project sponsored by Novell, has announced that openSUSE 11.2, a Linux-based operating system that includes everything needed to get started with Linux on the desktop or server, is now available for download. The openSUSE distribution provides the foundation for SUSE Linux Enterprise from Novell. "Different Linux distributions have a different focus," explains Joe Brockmeier, openSUSE community manager, noting that openSUSE is very suitable for small and home office users as well as for professionals who do development. While SUSE Linux Enterprise is designed to be on a system for 5-7 years, in contrast, says Brockmeier, openSUSE is intended to have a shorter lifecycle. "We keep up with the latest and greatest in open source software," he emphasizes, "but we still have a very firm commitment to quality, so it is not as if we are not pushing the very bleeding edge into the releases. We are trying to make sure that they still very well polished."
