[Fwd: [security-announce] Advance notice of discontinuation of SUSE Linux 10.0]

[jdd sur free <jdanield@free.fr>]

la suse 10.0 a bientôt deux ans, elle ne sera donc plus maintenue 
après fin Novembre.

Rien d'exceptionnel, sauf que c'était la première distribution SuSE 
totalement open source, ce qui allait devenir openSUSE...

Linux 10.0

Dear opensuse-security-announce subscribers and SUSE Linux users,

SUSE Security announces that SUSE Linux 10.0 will be discontinued soon.
Having provided security-relevant fixes for more than two years,
vulnerabilities found in SUSE Linux 10.0 after November 15th 2007 will
not be fixed any more for this product. We expect to release the last
updates around November 30th 2007.

Please do not confuse SUSE Linux 10.0 with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
10, these are two different products.

As a consequence, the SUSE Linux 10.0 distribution directory on our
ftp server ftp.suse.com will be moved from /pub/suse/10.0/ to the
/pub/suse/discontinued/ directory tree structure to free space on our
mirror sites. The 10.0 directory in the update tree /pub/suse/update/10.0
will follow, as soon as all updates have been published.

The discontinuation of SUSE Linux 10.0 enables us to focus on the SUSE
Linux and openSUSE distributions of a newer release dates to ensure that
our customers can continuously take advantage of the quality that they
are used to with SUSE Linux products.

This announcement holds true for SUSE Linux 10.0 only. As usual, SUSE
will continue to provide update packages for the following products:

SUSE Linux 10.1
openSUSE 10.2
and
openSUSE 10.3 (currently in development)

for a two-year period after the release of the respective distribution.

Please note that the maintenance cycles of SUSE Linux Enterprise products
and products based on the SUSE Linux Enterprise Server operating system
are not affected by this announcement and have longer life cycles.

To learn more about SUSE Linux business products, please visit
http://www.novell.com/linux/suse/ . For a detailed list of the life cycles
of our Enterprise Products please visit

and http://support.novell.com/lifecycle/lcSearchResults.jsp?sl=suse

If you have any questions regarding this announcement, please do not
hesitate to contact SUSE Security at <security@suse.de>.
Ciao, Marcus Meissner
