We will only do critical bugfixes. Server usage bugs are considered lower than regular homeuse bugs here. After 2 years we will stop doing security updates for openSUSE. After 7 years for SLES 9 and SLES 10 and further products. And you likely will not want to upgrade your server just after 2 years, but run it until the hardware dies or you need larger hardware. We make sure SLES is _stable_ for server usage and put a lot of effort into it. We cannot do this 2 times a year for products with a long lifetime.
