Again, what was public about openSUSE Leap, for example? Once it became public, we covered it, but the decision had already been made at that point.
We have no desire to discriminate against any distribution (or other project for that matter). I do follow the openSUSE lists; I'm even running openSUSE on my desktop machine. I'll look harder for potential topics in the future, I guess...

[opensuse-factory] Road-map for openSuse 13.3?
which went on till end of may, so for more than a month.
In May 2015, during osC 2015 Richard Brown did two relevant presentations, slides available here:
The ML discussion continued here:
The name Leap appeared really late in the cycle, see here for a summary (2015-06-30):
AFAIK, the *name* was selected by the openSUSE board after the ML discussion.
The availability of Leap was also the result of the SLES sources being available in the OBS, someone picking up what was available and creating a POC, and naming the POC openSUSE:42.
So the (apparent) lack of discussion prior to openSUSE:42 is due to the fact someone just did the first setup, the result which was very welcomed by most openSUSE community members.
A lot of discussion likely happened during osC 2015 (unfortunately I did no attend), and future directions where discussed again during osC 2016. Slides and videos are public.
