Re: [orca-list] ot Opensuse

[Kyle <kyle4jesus gmail com>]

Tumbleweed is OpenSUSE's testing branch. It's a rolling release branch 
that maintains all the latest versions of all the software packages they 
have. The packages in Tumbleweed get bug fixes, and once a degree of 
stability can be verified, they eventually filter down to the release. 
Using Tumbleweed, you have all the benefits, as well as all the 
drawbacks, of a rolling release, meaning that you will have all the 
latest software, but you could bump into bugs or regressions, both with 
the functionality of the application and with its accessibility.

I'm not familiar with Leap, as that seems to be something new, unless 
that's just the code name of the latest release. My recommendation, if 
you want something close to latest but stable and relatively bug-free, 
is to install the latest release. However, if you want to test the 
latest and greatest, you're not afraid of a few bugs and you want to 
help make OpenSUSE better, I would most certainly recommend Tumbleweed, 
as that's where all the testing and improvements happen most quickly. 
Hope this helps.
