I was under the impression that SuSE (now SUSE) stood for "Software und System Entwicklung" (Software and System Development, translated from German), are we referring to the same Linux distribution?

interesting - tried to look up if i am correct - couldnt find any result

i always assumed it to be named as a nod to zuse the famous german computer pioneer.

but you might be right - might just be coincidence
