Advance notice of discontinuation of SUSE Linux 10.1

Hi,

YaST on 10.3 is definitely and massively faster than YaST on 10.2. We've 
updated a huge amount of systems from 10.2 to 10.3 and found no drawbacks.

Best regards,
Dirk

>I suppose I shouldn't complain too much, but my big gripe with this is that the 10.3 release
seems to be not all that compatable with Smart Package Manager.

Of course they are compatible ... uses RPM all the way.

Then maybe wait for just two more months for 11.0. The package manager is even faster 
than smart or apt (saw yast -i start up in two seconds on my notebook) and it seems like 
it's going to be a very nice release :)

I suppose I shouldn't complain too much, but my big gripe with this is that the 10.3 release
seems to be not all that compatable with Smart Package Manager, but their own package manager
seems awfully slow....otherwise I would switch right away.  Never liked 10.2.
