openSUSE build service provides an infrastructure for the open development of future SUSE Linux based distribution. It provides software developers with a tool to release and publish their software easy and for a broad user audience. Our service provides a complete distribution development platform to create your own Linux distribution based on SUSE Linux. Packages can be built for SUSE Linux on various architectures. Beyond that it features compile and packaging service for other Linux distributions like Fedora, Debian/Ubuntu, and others. Users can browse and download easily latest packages they look for. Open interfaces allow external services (e.g. source forge) and web pages to integrate with the build service and to use its ressources.

In an advanced state (end of 2006) our build service is accesible for anybody, equiped with a user and trust management and is able to create further build targets (e.g. LSB, Xen images)
