Re: How openSUSE version numbers relate to SUSE Enterprise?

I would like to know if there is any relation on version number
between openSUSE and SUSE Enterprise. For example is SUSE Enterprise
10 based on openSUSE 10? Will SUSE Enterprise 11 (expected to be
release next year) be based on openSUSE 11?

The numbering is pure marketing. You have roughly the following
numbering:
SLE 9, SLE 10, SLE 11, ...

The openSUSE version before 9, 10, 11 ... is x.0 The ones after the x.0
are x.1, x.2 and sometimes even x.3

However as it is pure marketing, this is not set in stone and can change
any time.

Now on what is based on what. Both are based on Factory at a certain
moment in time. So you COULD say that SLE is based on x.0 and x.1 is
based on SLE and x.2 is based on x.1, but you would be wrong.

All are forks of factory at a certain moment in time.
