by Martin Lasarsch 23 Jul '08

23 Jul '08

Hi Again we have some nice, new and shiny PromoDVDs, now with openSUSE 11.0. The main goal is to spread them. Some examples: - you organize or take part of an event - you want good software in your school/university - you have a local LUG meeting To make the process easier Andreas Bauer created an order tool for it, just head over to http://software.opensuse.org/promodvd and enter your request there. The old order process, sending mails to me or marketing@whatever is now obsolete. Everything you need to know is explained on that page. If you want information about the PromoDVD in general: http://en.opensuse.org/PromoDVD -- with kind regards, Martin Lasarsch, Core Services SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) martin.lasarsch(a)suse.de - http://www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-announce+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-announce+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi everybody, I am pleased to announce, on behalf of SuSE's kernel teams, the first openSUSE Kernel bug squashing day: Wednesday, July 30th 2008. Our goals are: - Reduce the number of (openSUSE) kernel bugs in Novell's bugzilla; - Clean out all those ancient and no longer valid bugs; - Identify duplicates; - Upstream as many of the bugs (and patches) as possible; - For the remaining bugs, help their triaging and resolution along. - Help test and review fixes. No bug is sacred! Interested members from the openSUSE community are invited to join us on irc.freenode.net, channel #opensuse-kernel for live coordination and participation on that day; the SUSE kernel teams will be there too, and we look forward to challenging bugs and successful cooperation.
