This is great and all, but the link to the sources only provides the sources for the released DVDs. I couldn't find update/patch/security fix sources.

Isn't this whole OpenSLES idea doomed if Novell does not provide those in a timely manner?

I think Novell has the obligation to provide the source packages to their customers, so the only thing you need is one customer.

The same goes for CentOS, if Red Hat for whatever reason stops being generous, only a set of entitlements for RHEL is needed to continue CentOS.
