SUSE is coming back home

Novell has announce the opening of the whole Suse Professional linux distribution into the community. This would mean opening up some proprietary extensions that Suse has built through the years. Remember YAST? I guess they are keen on following the model Red Hat has done on Fedora. Hmmm. Isn't it too late for them? We'll see. I have had experience with Suse and I find it a little heavy especially with their GUI. The KDE and other goodies that comes default with Suse is sluggish compared to defaults offered by Fedora, Slackware or Ubuntu. OK, as of this writing www.opensuse.org is down. I'll wait for it be live and try if myself.
