openSUSE creates one of the world’s best Linux distributions, working together in an open, transparent and friendly manner as part of the worldwide Free and Open Source Software community. The project is controlled by its community and relies on the contributions of individuals, working as testers, writers, translators, usability experts, artists and ambassadors or developers. The project embraces a wide variety of technology, people with different levels of expertise, speaking different languages and having different cultural backgrounds.

The goals of the openSUSE project are:
• Make openSUSE 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 openSUSE the world’s best Linux distribution for new and experienced Linux users.
• Dramatically simplify and open the development and packaging processes to make openSUSE the platform of choice for Linux hackers and application developers.

openSUSE shares many features with SUSE Linux Enterprise offerings, for example:
• AppArmor: gives certain applications rights based on how they run and interact with the environment.
• YaST: a system management application which openSuSE uses as a Control Center.
• Xen: virtualization software
• The KDE (extended with such tools as Kickoff and KNetworkManager) and GNOME desktop environments
• Compiz: a 3D desktop that runs on XGL.
