They are related in that form, that CentOS is built from publically 
available open source SRPMS provided by RedHat. There is no 
official relationship. Anyway we should better concentrate on 
openSUSE now.

I don't want to make a derived distribtution, but maybe it's 
interesting for Novell to add some functionality/ packages. Let 
SLES form the core and the community could add some functionality.
Just like it is now for SUSE Linux.

I think you're better informed about CentOS than i am. :-)

My orginal itention was to hear if there is somebody else, who want 
a openSUSE Version which aims at being used as server. Are you 
intersestd in a server version?

Maybe, as Pascal Bleser already written, a projekt like SUPER is the 
way to go? (Ideas are welcome!)
