== Release Candidate Phase
With Release Candidate 1, we are now entering the Release Candidate phase for
SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 Service Pack 4. 
This means that we are more strict about changes during this phase. Thus we
are restricting changes to bug fixes and security vulnerabilities, of course
the goal is to focus on stability since the we are closer and closer to
