Excellent job managing 15 people! I do think though that it would be nice to have code names for openSUSE releases. Take, for example, a new release of GroupWise - Bonsai. I'm not sure if it's going to be GroupWise 7.5 or 8.0, but GroupWise Bonsai release sounds better, plus I can easy associate new features with this particular version. I know that interface is improved, I know that it would have notification feature plus more, plus more.... The same could work for the openSUSE. We should have a road map with some code names. Maybe community could provide some input. I think it should be something positive, fun and reassuring. Frequently, openSUSE uses green color in its distribution so let's come up with slogans for a new release. Something like: It's greener on the other side! Come visit and see it for yourself.
