I agree that an OSS sles clone would be good for suse market share. Various people have opined that opensuse is the oss clone os sles, but that is simply not the case.
How can I put this simply: opensuse is to sles as fedora is to rhel. In other words, while there is clearly a family resemblance, sles and opensuse are different distros.
What is needed is a sles equivalent of centos, which is nowhere to be found. I've thought a lot about this recently myself, and maybe it's an idea whose time has come.
so many misconceptions
