Since Redhat released Satellite 6.x and includes integration with puppet, git and other stuff, how will this affect Spacewalk. Will Satellite still take some of the features of Spacewalk or is it now a tree that is broken. Just curious how if any this will affect Spacewalk development. Yeah I know, I'm behind the time in news about it but hey, I'm left in a dark room to configure spacewalk so I don't get out much. :-) Bellow a good comparison between them https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Satellite/6.0/html/Transition_Guide/chap-Comparing_Satellite_5_and_Satellite_6.html About roadmap, Satellite 5.x will still until 2019 (roadmap), maybe more .. maybe less. :-) About development, I believe will be the same now, if the users submit new request for enhancement, for example, will be analyzed and if is a good thing, will be applied. (guys from Red Hat can talk a little bit more about it). ;-)
Satellite 6 is not based on Spacewalk at all, so after Satellite 5 end-of-lifes that tree will be completely broken. Satellite 6 is based on other open source projects like katello and foreman.
That being said I believe that SUSE still plans on supporting / working on SUSE Manager for the foreseeable future, so I fully expect Spacewalk and the Spacewalk community to continue growing and gaining new interesting features even after 2019.
