I'm fine with both.

2 is more "wiki-like",

1 is more like a newspaper story - if the "Info-Box" on the right side  
is "leaft-floated" with the normal description.

But looking at the "source code" (the wiki markup), I like 1 more,  
because it's simpler.

So: +1 for suggestion 2.

I miss links to the Categories, so people can easily find similar  
software by clicking on (for example) "Math" or "Up from 6 years".

Perhaps it's also possible to add a link like  
"http://software.opensuse.org/search?p=1&q=Geogebra" (replace Geogebra  
with the package name) to the repository? This makes it easier for  
people to find and directly install the software. But I'm not shure if  
this makes it more complicated in the source text.

Download Size/Installed Size -> really necessary?

Perhaps an extra chapter "See also" listing similar packages is helpful?
