by ddemaio 05 May '21

05 May '21

Hi all, We will have a marketing meeting tonight (April 28) at 18:00 UTC on https://meet.opensuse.org/153marketing The meeting later today will focus on a few things like screenshots, timeline for release and an open discussion on other things we can do to help promote the release. We've been working on the release announcement for a while and have finally completed it. The release announcement for openSUSE Leap 15.3 is ready for translation. We have about 5 weeks until the release. It would be highly appreciated if you could help to translate the release announcement to your native language and help promote the news of that release. Currently the release is only in English. Please link your translated version to the top and include your ISO 639-1 Code language code (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes) or the language for those contributing to https://news.opensuse.org/2021/03/10/a-message-to-the-opensuse-community/ I have placed the release announcement on the openSUSE wiki at https://en.opensuse.org/Release_announcement_15.3. This is the single point from where I will take all the links of the translated versions. Please remember to link your translated version to your ISO 639-1 Code on https://en.opensuse.org/Release_announcement_15.3 We have social posts that can be translated at https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Social_media_launch_plan. For people running an openSUSE social media page who would like to post the content, please mark down the name for the person who will be responsible for posting the content on the wiki. v/r Doug
