To me this is a major show stopper. I can understand the desire to get 10.1 out, but with all the problems and troubles. I really think the schedule needs to be revised. Till all the issue with this updater are fixed. 10.1 should not ship!!!! Doing this will have major impact. I have finally convinced some people to really look at SUSE Linux. If they have to see 10.1 in it's current state, they will jump to something else. They may even consider staying with... As I see this and with my testing. Things just do not work. I would rather undo the updater and get 10.1 out or accept the fact that it is not ready for prime time and change the schedule to allow for proper testing and fixing the broken product. Far more harm than good can/will come from the existing issues/features that will be undon in 10.2. > > I prefer the old way.

Sorry but I think it needs to be done now and a new schedule for 10.1.
