JDS and JES

I'm trying to do some JDS development and want to integrate my Identification Management solution with JES. Then I discovered a "Doh ". JDS uses SuSE Linux, and JES uses Red Hat. What gives ?

The underlying linux is a desktop release and as such was a better fit for the first JDS release.
