Hi all,

With the release of the last updates on Dec 3rd, 2019 the SUSE
sponsored maintenance of openSUSE Leap 15.0 has ended.

openSUSE Leap 15.0 is now officially discontinued and out of support
by SUSE.

The currently maintained stable release is openSUSE Leap 15.1, which
will be maintained until end of November 2020. See https://en.opensuse.org/Lifetime

openSUSE Leap 15.0 was released end of May 2018, making it 18 months of
security and bugfix support.

It was the fourth hybrid distribution which used sources from SUSE Linux
Enterprise and from our community developers to bridge a gap between
matured packages and newer packages found in openSUSE Tumbleweed.
