"Of all the community distributions, probably the least known is openSUSE. After two and a half years, the distro is not only still working out details about how its community operates - including how its governing board is elected - but also struggling to come out of the shadow of its corporate parent Novell, much as Fedora has emerged from its initial dominance by Red Hat. With the pending release of openSUSE 11.0, community manager Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier suggests that the distribution is finally starting to get the recognition it deserves. In the middle of preparations for the new release, Brockmeier took the time to talk with Linux.com about the priorities within the community and its relation with the larger world of free software."

After 10+ years using FreeBSD for all my server needs, I tried PC-BSD for desktop. Unfortunately there were some types of work I could not do with it.
After trying several Linux distributions I found OpenSuse to be easy to use, feature rich, stable and mature.
Even more importantly I have found it has a wonderful community of very helpfull volunteers.
Most definitely worth a check if you are looking to try a Linux distribution.
