Hi Bryen, I agree and will work in some focus on the collaboration/community aspect.

If I were to suggest anything, and certainly you're free to reject it, I'd like to give a bit more oomph to the fact that this was a community collaborated effort and emphasizes what Project is all about (which is more than just a distro.) In many of our opinions, this is probably one of THE most collaborative efforts we've seen and the spirits are riding high and people are jumping in from all over to come up with ways to improve and exemplify openSUSE. While 11.4 itself is a great release, I think 11.4 is more significant for its community than even for its distribution because there's been no better time than present where "community" truly is "community." And it benefits everyone, including our current and future sponsors. :-) Bryen
