[opensuse-marketing] An openSUSE Advocate wannabe questions
Dear all, My name is Dimitar Zahariev and I want to be an openSUSE Advocate for Bulgaria. Currently I am working as a business intelligence / data integration consultant with open and closed source solutions. I am using openSUSE on a daily basis as my primary operating system. I can provide further personal / professional information if needed. Now straight to the point. I want to organize an openSUSE booth at our open source event later this year. The event is called OpenFest (http://www.openfest.org/2016/en/) and it will take place on 5th and 6th of November. Last year there were more than 3000 visitors. As a first attempt there will be only a booth, even though I will have probably a lecture or two, but they will be on a different topic. For the booth I'm planing to have: - big monitor with running presentation(s); - laptop with a live system for demo purposes; - give away stickers; - flyers; - roll banner; - some ruffle prizes; I read all the information provided in the Advocate Portal and followed all the steps there, but any suggestions and / or opinions are more than welcome. I know that I can build and order most of things locally (and pay for them, which I will most probably do), but I wanted to know is there an option for some kind of help from openSUSE? By help I don't mean to receive something for free, but for example to obtain it with a discount from somewhere, it will save me money and time. And there are things that are hard to find, for example the plush Gecko... Perhaps later this year I will organize a launch party as well. It will be in the second part of November or the first half of December, but this is another story. :) Thank you in advance for your feedback!

Hi Doug, I am not familiar with the protocol, so I reply only to you. Please advise me if additional actions are needed. My home address is: r.c. Hristo Smirnenski, bl.22, entr.3, fl.5, apt.84 Sofia, 1574 Bulgaria My work address (preferred) is: 56 Rodopski izvor Str., fl.2, apt.6 Sofia, 1680 Bulgaria Just in any case, my mobile phone is +359899605664. If possible, please give me an indication, when should I expect the package, and eventually what are the costs - taxes and the materials themselves. Now I suppose, the event should be announced at least on opensuse.org, and in some social channels like Twitter and Facebook. Are there any specific requirements? If I have further questions, shall I write to the common e-mail or I can address them to you? Kind regards, Dimitar Zahariev On вторник, октомври 04, 2016 12:49:03 PM ddemaio wrote:
