Some time ago I raised the problem of some little-known or even extinct distros being listed on the main page, while some well-known ones (e.g. in the Distrowatch top 10) were listed in the "other" section.

A similar problem is that openSUSE (6th at Distrowatch) is treated as "other" while SUSE on the main page is intended only for SUSE Enterprise Linux (76th). If you look at the number of viewers, it's clear that most people don't notice this. I certainly didn't until today. 299 people viewed 12.2 in Other (where wsteward had posted it), but 5957 viewed it on the main page (where knightron had posted it). In fact most openSUSE versions are double posted.

It would be nice if the reviews section could be sorted out some day. Please?!

Thanks for the feedback. The reviews section is going to get a complete overhaul as part of the upcoming code update. We'll try to address the category issue at that time. In the meantime, I've created an openSUSE category and moved all related reviews.
