No it is not this is unmaintained for 2 years now.

Thanks. So SUSE is standalone architecture ?

Afaik yes, SUSE & OpenSUSE are independent and not derived from Red Hat or any other family of distros.

Though I do personally consider the SUSE/OpenSUSE and Red Hat/Fedora disro families as closer cousins.

SUSE and Red Hat are commercial.

openSUSE and Fedora are community based.

Both are pretty much cousins, yeah.
