Yeah, timing was bad - that's why I say on the web page it needs two to three weeks.

Abse-fracking-lutely cool. I've seen some stuff about it on planet KDE already and mentioned this in a column I wrote for linuxuser (UK magazine). It'll end up on the wiki page ;-) At what point do you think this warrants an article for news.o.o? > Cheers,

[opensuse-marketing] RMLL
by jdd 09 Apr '11

09 Apr '11

The "Libre Software Meeting" (RMLL) will be held in Strasbourg in the second/third week of july (9-14) http://2011.rmll.info/ This is the larger international free software fest in France. Being near the Est french side, it could be easy for openSUSE official to come. I hope to be able to attend. I wrote to the organisation (no answer yet), but alone I wont do much good :-( usually it's held in an university campus, so accomodation and food are cheap. I had little answers on th french list until now :-( Josh offered to help (including with money), but we first have to have attendees :-) jdd NB I cross post on project and marketting, don't knowing what is the best list last year web site: http://2010.rmll.info/spip.php -- http://www.dodin.net http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgxog7_clip-l-ombre-et-la-lumiere-3-bad-pi… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGgv_ZFtV14 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE box for sale on the shop
by Koushik Kumar Nundy 09 Apr '11

09 Apr '11

Hi all, Just curious why the Europe / Asia shop < http://shop.opensuse.org/shop-eu.html > shows a photo of the openSUSE 11.3 box on the "Buy openSUSE" widget. The link points to < http://en.opensuse.org/Buy_openSUSE >, which is basically selling 11.4 boxes. Is it an oversight? If yes, those with admin rights, please correct. Thanks, ~kknundy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org
