And then when they banned Sam from a list just because he was

the absolute height of bad form -- this compounds the original

to satisfy the user-base by changing a few words on an install
screen to address the problem he's concerned about than to
create the impression that the SUSE product is run by a bunch
of insecure goons who can't handle constructive criticism.
He was banned months ago for using bad language and insults. He came back under other name. I guess that if he stayed quiet and polite he would not have been banned again, but resorting to bad manners again attracts attention to him, and the ban is reinstated.
For all I know, technologically, the 11.0 release will be
very good -- but the answers coming from the team come off
as anywhere from blase' disinterest for the concerns of those
raising them to barely concealed contempt and hostility
for even asking questions.
You should understand that there is another list where these things were asked, discussed, and solved, time ago. It's late to change the decissions made. They were made, every body agreed, more or less, so things are not going to change now, at this point.
When suggesting to a complete Linux neophyte that they try
SUSE 11.0, do we really want to rely on the recollection
of said neophyte to remember any caveats about KDE 4, when
The install screen clearly states that kde 4 is not as mature. If I were a neophite I would read it and choose. Or go back and ask.
