First, we do not drop it. It is there, it is fully supported, you
can install the system on it.

We only changed the installer _default_. You can of course
still select it in the istnaller.

Reasons for no longer making it the default:
- No active upstream maintenance. SUSE had 2 developers supporting it,
  one of them left SUSE.
 
- not effectively scalable to lots of CPUs.

See Jeff Mahoneys article on it.
