While openSUSE Tumbleweed users are currently enjoying cutting-edge software releases like the LibreOffice 5.2 RC1 office suite, Mesa 3D Graphics Library 12.0.0, Linux kernel 4.6.3, the PulseAudio 9.0 sound system, python3-setuptools 24.0.2, and the latest systemd init system update, openSUSE Leap users will have a surprise later this year when the 42.2 major version is announced. As you probably already know, the openSUSE Leap operating system is built only around stable, thoroughly tested open-source and GNU/Linux technologies. That’s why openSUSE’s Douglas DeMaio informs the community today about what users should expect from the openSUSE Leap 42.2 release.
