ABOUT THE HEARTBLEED BUG
Have you checked your heart lately? Good.
How about your OpenSSL library? No? Well, you should.

NEW OPENSUSE IMAGE!
Hello everybody,
As you may have noticed, a new Image has appeared under System Images. And yes, it is openSUSE! Many of our users had asked if we could provide an official openSUSE image, so there you have it!
~okeanos now supports openSUSE all the way, which means there are also official packages of the kamaki command-line client and the snf-image-creator tool for the ~okeanos advanced users.
So, go ahead. Take them for a spin and see how it goes.
Enjoy,
