Clarifying Misunderstandings of Slowroll (openSUSE News)

Post Syndicated from corbet original https://lwn.net/Articles/958759/

The openSUSE News site has put up a
brief article
on how Slowroll fits into the spectrum of openSUSE
distributions.

The idea behind Slowroll is to offer a distribution that improves
stability without losing access to new features in the base
packages such as the kernel, desktop environments and
packaging. These slower update cycles allow for more extensive
testing and validation of packages before their inclusion. Think of
Slowroll as more of a skip than a Leap.
