SMT 11 SP3 will (get an update) and be able to mirror
SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 related repositories, and
yes, this certainly includes the Modules.

In other words: if you have a way to work with
maintenance updates provided by SUSE in a structured
way, you will also be able to work with Modules.

Others already sent more details on the benefits of
Modules for keeping SLES "fresh" and attractive.
