Hi Ricardo, The background colors of the cover use the standard colors of openSUSE and therefore if i put the logo without a diferent background color then its not easy recognised. For that reason the plain white gecko is there (it can be a white circle too or something like that if wanted). Just check a test of the cover without the white background behind the logo http://ragecryx.googlepages.com/openSUSE_11.2_DVDWrap_NEW_testest.png Only "SUSE" is 100% visible, the rest of the logo "blends" with the background colors.

[opensuse-marketing] Sneak Peeks
by Kevin "Yeaux" Dupuy 21 Oct '09

21 Oct '09

Just a quick note that I've updated the Sneak Peek draft page for 11.2, hopefully we can start collecting ideas now and not end up in the situation we did last year where we rushed out a few articles days before the launch. http://en.opensuse.org/Sneak_Peeks Included on the page is six proposed articles, each with proposed release times. Feel free to tweak around. All comments, concerns, questions and restraining orders welcome. -- Kevin "Yeaux" Dupuy openSUSE Project Member www.twitter.com/KevinDupuy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE 11.2 launch plan
by Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier 23 Sep '09

23 Sep '09

Hi all, Looking for contributions, suggestions, etc. for the 11.2 launch plan. The skeleton draft is up on the wiki, here: http://en.opensuse.org/Marketing/Team/11_2_Launch Includes timeline, talking points, a place to put collateral, and so on. Ambassadors: Now is the time to start planning launch parties. I hope that every ambassador will be doing something for the 11.2 launch -- whether that's planning a major launch party for a region, or simply planning a small 11.2 get-together or being sure to talk up 11.2 at school, work, etc. Also, we need a more comprehensive list of publications around the world that might be willing to publish information about openSUSE. We have pretty good lists for North America and Europe (or at least parts of Europe) but around the world we could use a lot of help here. If you see other areas where you are willing, able, and interested in helping, please speak up!

Hi Raul, Not everyone reads Roman alphabets. The Japanese, Arabs and Chinese (like me) may prefer to read in their native language.

[opensuse-marketing] Marketing BoFs at openSUSE Conference
by Bryen M Yunashko 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

Folks, We're getting very close to that time when openSUSE Conference begins. I hope a good number of you will be attending. I'm thinking we should have one or two BoFs focused on the marketing team. One should be focused on the technical stuff (wikis, newsletters, translation teams, etc.) and the other should be on marketing strategy discussions. Is there anyone here who is interested in organizing, leading, co-leading, (whatever) these sessions? Remember, this is a BoF, so they shouldn't be too formal. Just a gathering of everyone with common interests and issues. -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member GNOME-A11y Team Member www.bryen.com (Personal Blog) www.planet-a11y.net (Feed aggregator of the Accessibility Community) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] How not to market free software
by Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier 04 Sep '09

04 Sep '09

This is less openSUSE specific and more for discussion about the best ways to talk about free and open source software. Let me preface this by saying, I certainly respect the FSF and the work they've done over the years. But they shouldn't be allowed near advertising at any cost. Case in point, the "defective by design" campaign. It's relentlessly negative. It offers few, if any, alternatives. It doesn't consider the perspective of the "average" users who don't view software as an ethical consideration. It's like a PETA campaign, but based around software. I may agree with some of PETA's goals, but their tone and general negativity push me away -- and so does this. The "Windows 7 Sins" that was recently launched is just plain awful. Sorry, I am sure people worked hard on this, and their hearts are in the right place. (Metaphorically speaking. I'm not a cardiologist, so I'm not qualified to judge medically...) http://windows7sins.org/ I bring this up because I think it's important to focus on the positives and benefits of FOSS and openSUSE, not to try to say "use openSUSE because the other guys suck."

I'm going to agree and disagree. I agree that we should never market OpenSuSE this way or any open source project for that matter. But I disagree that the FSF should not have done this. The FSF is not a sales organisation, it is not even a marketing organisation, it is a pressure group and this sort of thing is great for that sort of lobby group, they deal in politics not sales, in opinions not volume. The FSF is not expecting everyone to use it's material in other marketing campaigns. It is however getting information out there and creating debate and discussion. (This is not the only List I'm on that is going on about this) There has to be an organisation that can promote an extreme agenda to counter the opposite extreme and the FSF fills that role admirably. Their action allows the rest of us to be more reasonable and positive. Of course each of those points they made is stored away for future reference... just in case. ;) As the old tenet goes: For every negative, find three positives (But if you want to win make sure that the one negative outweighs all the positives :) ) Cheers GL > > Best, > > Zonker > -- > Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier <jzb(a)zonker.net> > openSUSE Community Manager: http://zonker.opensuse.org > Blogs: http://blogs.zdnet.com/community | http://www.dissociatedpress.net > Twitter: jzb | Identica: jzb > http://identi.ca/group/opensuse/members -- Graham Lauder, INGOTs Assessor Trainer (International Grades in Office Technologies) http://www.theingots.org OpenOffice.org MarCon (Marketing Contact) NZ http://marketing.openoffice.org/contacts.html Open Opportunities ltd.

[opensuse-marketing] spreading the word tools
by Fabrice 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Hi all, Recently some local Linux friends from the community told me that we should have some install parties and spread the word that Linux Suse exists ... So, i'm wondering what are the best and easiests tools we have to spread the word that openSUSE exists and is a good distro ? install parties could be an example but i'm interested in ideas that could easily be raised locally and that you saw working near you. i have the same type of questions Zonker related about tattoos : "* Who are we targeting? New users? Contributors? * What's the purpose? Fun, brand awareness, education, etc.? * What impact will it have? * Is it worth the money we'd spend and the time it takes to produce?" So any tips or experiences are welcomed . Thanks ;=) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] Tweeting our way into people's hearts...
by Kevin "Yeaux" Dupuy 06 Aug '09

06 Aug '09

Greetings Marketing team! I want to encourage everyone to do one simple thing (and many of you are probably already doing this) to help your fellow openSUSE users out - and those that are maybe not yet involved in the openSUSE community. The way I'm doing it, and I think this can be a good, easy, and quick thing that we can all do, is using your Twitter client of choice (I use Gwibber and Tweetie for my phone), set up a search for "openSUSE". Then check on it even just once a day. If a person mentions they're trying out openSUSE, welcome and thank them. Give them important links, like to the Communicate page for support, or our own Twitter account (@openSUSE). If someone has a question, help them out. Even just pointing them to the forums or IRC rooms can help. If someone says they're uninstalling openSUSE, still thank them for trying us out and wish them luck on whatever OS they choose. The goal isn't to 'spread openSUSE' (aka don't spam Twitter, though getting into the Trending Topics would be nice, though we'd have to beat AT&T, iPhone, and Michael Jackson. It could happen ;-) ), but instead to give people the impression that the openSUSE Community is inviting, caring, and all around awesome ;-) -- Kevin "Yeaux" Dupuy openSUSE Project Member Sent from Kevin Yeaux's mobile device. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] User Survey
by Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier 02 Aug '09

02 Aug '09

One thing this KDE discussion brings up is this: It's been a long time since we've had a user survey. The previous survey can be found here: http://files.opensuse.org/opensuse/en/e/ec/Survey_openSUSE110.pdf Any suggestions to modify some of the questions, add new ones, get rid of old ones? (i.e., is it relevant or not to ask "why do you use a dual-boot system"?) Please get me suggestions by end of next week (August 7) Typically we do these infrequently after releases, but I think we should probably be doing them at least every 12 months, which means we're soon overdue.
