Announced by the openSUSE project about seventeen months ago, the openSUSE 11.2 operating system will reache end of life (EOL) on May 12th, 2011.

openSUSE 11.2 introduced features such as Linux kernel 2.6.31.5, EXT4 as the default filesystem, the GNOME 2.28.0 and KDE 4.3.1 desktop environments, X.Org 7.4, X.Org server 1.6.5, new artwork, the Slab Main Menu for GNOME, OpenOffice.org 3.1, USB installation support, WebYaST, and much more.

With regrets, the openSUSE developers, through Marcus Meissner, announced on March 24th that there will be no more updates coming for the openSUSE 11.2 Linux distribution, starting with May 12th, 2011.

Support for openSUSE 11.2 will be officially droped, which means that starting with May 12th, 2011, the openSUSE project will stop "feeding" the openSUSE 11.2 operating system with security or critical fixes, and software updates.
