[opensuse-marketing] Release Party for 11.2
by Eric Yeoh 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Dear all, The openSUSE community over here in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur will be having a Release Party on Dec 5th at APIIT (http://www.apiit.edu.my). So far we have nailed down the place and date but am unsure what activities can be held. Can anyone here suggests something? So far Novell Malaysia has agreed to provide some sponsorship and I am wondering is there a format that is adopted by all openSUSE ambassadors and/or communities for Release Party? I would appreciate some assistance in this. Talking in front of a huge crowd is not a problem but I am quite bad in organising get togethers. Thanks.
