Ubuntu seems interested in providing an appliance-like experience to most of its users.

SuSE seems to be interested in broadening the ecosystem around SuSE to be more inclusive of different distributions and different market segments as defined by external entities. As such, they are working on creating tooling that allows these external entities to decide how to apply items available from various SuSE services, such as OBS.

I hope it works out well for Ubuntu. I have a much greater stake in seeing SuSE's objectives work out well. I believe their efforts will help increase Linux adoption more by manufacturers including Linux in their products.

Hehe, read Jono Bacon's latest post, apparently removing the most important UI element in Gnome 3.0 (i.e. Gnome Shell) together with assorted stuff to replace all of that with Ubuntu developed elements is not enough to call it a fork!

They're free to do what they want, that's the beauty (and danger) of free software, but why are they so afraid to call things with their proper name?

A perplexed Ubuntu user...
