openSUSE 12.1 with GNOME 3.2 Features, Oyranos Color System & Snapper

The openSUSE project this week reached its version 12.1 release. This latest version of the Linux-based operating system has shipped with the GNOME 3.2 desktop shell, which is distinguished by its use of integrated messaging, a new document manager and a general all round squishing of bugs since the last release. Also of note is a new "colour management" system provided by the Oyranos color management system.

Lauded by some as the most appealing new feature, openSUSE 12.1 also features Snapper -- a new function that "allows users to view older versions of files and revert changes".
