There’s a feature request in openFATE (see features.opensuse.org) for openSUSE 11.2 that asks for not running it by default and we plan to do this.

Thanks for the comment, but please be sure to ask *on the wiki* and if possible be present at the meeting if you’re interested in discussing this.

A good topic for the meeting? Beagle: any openSUSE user I know (including myself) uninstall it. Run a search for beagle on the openSUSE forums and you will see what I’m talking about: many post (usually answering about poor performance) that tells to uninstall it. The question is: if almost no-one use it, why is it there by default? Let it on the DVD for someone who really needs it and know the “risks”.
I think a survey about this point is needed.
Just my two cents.
