SUSE does not release their enterprise sources and there is no SLES clone because of it.
I can't believe I never thought about it (to wonder why there wasn't any SLES clone)...
Shouldn't they release the source for the GPL packages? I thought there was no way around it (and therefore that's why Red Hat had to do it).
a number of embedded consumer boxes just release tarballs of the stock distribution software, without any of their modifications, drivers, or build configuration. try and find sources for, say, a WD TV Live, and you'll find a tarball of distribution tarballs of the linux kernel, ulibc, and various other such things, all dead stock.
