According to a Novell confidential memo dated June 14, Novell is delaying its next release of both the server and desktop versions of SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 "to address final issues with our new package management, registration, and update system and also fix the remaining blocker defects."

Are any of those distro's you just listed being touted as enterprise class software and sold with a 5 year support promise? Errrr No.
The GCC in there now is hardly enterprise class and 4.0 was a bit of a step backwards. In reality, upgrading the compiler and toolchain would be a fairly low risk fow quite a few new benefits. However, if the release was perhaps a few months further away it would have been more realistic.
OpenSUSE 10.1 suffered because of important last minute changes
Different thing. The last minute changes to 10.1 were the package management system, and it was absolutely pointless.
Novell will not want to piss of customers with a shoddy and unreliable release of SLES 10.
Oh don't worry. They've been making a great job of that for some time across all of their products.
