OpenSUSE Leap is a hybrid
distribution; it is based on SUSE’s enterprise distribution (SLE), which
follows the “slow and stable” approach, but adds a number of newer packages
on top. Leap is intended to be a desktop-oriented distribution with a stable
and reliable base. As SUSE transitions away from its traditional
enterprise distribution toward its “Adaptable
Linux Platform” (ALP), though, the stable base upon which openSUSE Leap
is built is going away. The openSUSE community is currently discussing how
the project should respond.
