No, The goals of the openSUSE project are:

    * Make SUSE Linux the easiest Linux distribution for anyone to obtain
      and the most widely used open source platform.
    * Provide an environment for open source collaboration that makes SUSE
      Linux the world's best Linux distribution for new and experienced
      Linux users.
    * Dramatically simplify and open the development and packaging
      processes to make SUSE Linux the platform of choice for Linux
      hackers and application developers.

I would start with translating the available information and only later
start adding information.
