openSUSE Tumbleweed is a rolling distribution of openSUSE. It is kept up to date with the latest packages, while maintaining a degree of stability. Although not as unstable as the bleeding edge factory build (which usually includes the very latest and beta builds of packages), it is not considered as stable as the main openSUSE distribution. That being said, issues are usually fixed pretty quick due to the rolling nature of this release. | openSUSE Tumbleweed is a rolling distribution of openSUSE.

<s>We have decided to use this build on the server, at least until the next openSUSE distribution release. We stopped using [[openSUSE Leap 42.1]] as we wanted to leverage the latest web and virtualization technologies which Leap fell just short of (namely http/2 and PHP 7 web technologies and IOMMU for virtualization). Also, Leap is based on an older version of SUSE Linux Enterprise at the moment, which is mature, but not as up to date. So far we have had a few stability issues but these seem to be fixing themselves with the regular updates provided. When confident that a distribution contains the technologies we need, we will move back to a distribution release for ultimate stability.</s>We've moved back to [openSUSE Leap 42.2] regular release. | <s>We have decided to use this build on the server, at least until the next openSUSE distribution release.
