Marcus, this is only correct theoretically - since lot's of patches are
currently _not_ in OpenSuSE 10.1 but will be part of SLES10 you can't
seriously treat them equally, even if the 'code base' remains the same...

One example: We are facing serious stability problems with ocfs2/iscsi,
which has not been fixed in OS10.1 - but I am told it will in SLES10.
Here we are back in the realm of 'believe' since I am not able to verify
that statement until I bought your product which may be buggy or
unfinished (as software usually is).
