Funny thing. I never thought to read about this here (:
In German a "Berliner" is person living in berlin _or_ a donut except in berlin. When you try to buy a donut in berlin you should use the word "Pfannkuchen" instead otherwise people will look a little bit confused.
So why should Oracle and SAP ever think about supporting anything else than Redhat after they invested money in Redhat and what seems to even more important (at least for SAP) they are NOT interested in diversity
At least for the Linux community at SAP, I can hardly imagine that they are going to support _only_ RH.
The whole developement took place in the employees free time (like staroffice) and if they (the developers) want to support SuSE or whatever theyll do so.
The SAP-software developement policy is more or less a laissez-faire style model, with a good deal of freedom for their programmers.

All signs, documentation and even the meals are labelled in both german and english.
(splitting hairs) the language is ABAP/4 and takes
the worst of cobol, rpg, SQLs and (IMO) Commodore Basic.
Im sure I forgot some languages.
