After jimmac handed me the new design for 11.3, I've updated counter.o.o accordingly: http://counter.opensuse.org/11.3/ Note that it comes in three different sizes: * 400x400: http://counter.opensuse.org/11.3/large * 256x256: http://counter.opensuse.org/11.3/medium * 130x130: http://counter.opensuse.org/11.3/small If you don't add anything after "11.3", it automatically pulls the medium- sized picture (256x256). You may also use one of the following URLs: * http://counter.opensuse.org * http://counter.opensuse.org/small * http://counter.opensuse.org/medium * http://counter.opensuse.org/large in which case it will always display the latest countdown (11.3 now, 11.4 in a few months). Those are static PNG images, no Javascript nor anything special needed. Apache on the server side is picking the picture in the right language depending on the accepted languages sent by the browser of the person that goes on your blog/site/whatever which pulls the image from counter.o.o Currently, it is translated in the following languages: English (en), German (de), Czech (cz), Slovak (sk), French (fr), Danish (da), Russian (ru), Polish (pl), Dutch (nl), Finnish (fi), Spanish (es), Italian (it), Greek (el), Swedish (sv), Croatian (hr), Norwegian (nb), Portuguese (pt), Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR), Hungarian (hu), Romanian (ro), Slovenian (sl), Chinese (cn and tw), Indonesian (id), Bulgarian (bg), Japanese (jp), Walloon (wa), Galician (gl) and Georgian (ge). If you'd like to contribute another language, please let me know ;D To link them in your blog/site/whatever: <img src="http://counter.opensuse.org"/> cheers -- -o) Pascal Bleser /\\ http://opensuse.org -- I took the green pill _\_v FOSDEM::6+7 Feb 2010, Brussels, http://fosdem.org

No, because it doesn't matter :) Apache is doing the redirect to that file based on the language code of the browser. And there, I believe we do have ja, or even ja_JP. Unless, of course, it currently doesn't redirect properly for Japanese.

Mmmmmyeah. The idea is to use Fifthleg as it is the official openSUSE font, for the number of days and for the text. The issue is that Fifthleg doesn't have the full Unicode range, and doesn't include Japanese, Chinese, Russian, etc... Which is why I'm falling back to other fonts to do that (using Dejavu Sans). I'll try to use Droid where I can't use Fifthleg. cheers -- -o) Pascal Bleser /\\ http://opensuse.org -- I took the green pill _\_v FOSDEM::6+7 Feb 2010, Brussels, http://fosdem.org

Nice work Pascal and jimmac. When on topic of countdown, we can have more counters that can enhance related pages. Some ideas (mentioned in various occasions): Fine grained counter for the last day and counter that will show time since current version release. Both should replace countdown. Countdown for end of support term, posted on release schedule, and wiki portal for that version. -- Regards Rajko, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Implemented already, the last 24 hours it switches to hourly countdown mode.

Countdown for end of support term, posted on release schedule, and wiki portal for that version.

That can be done too, with the same codebase. cheers -- -o) Pascal Bleser /\\ http://opensuse.org -- I took the green pill _\_v FOSDEM::6+7 Feb 2010, Brussels, http://fosdem.org

Later I found installed on http://wiki.opensuse.org MediaWiki extension EventCountdown http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EventCountdown . It is not advertised in the list with other extensions, as it is missing that part in the code, but I noticed tag <daysuntil> . Henne already used it in http://wiki.opensuse.org/Portal:Factory as: ------------------------------------------------------------ The next release will be openSUSE 11.3, to be released in <daysuntil in="days">15 July 2010</daysuntil> (July 15th, 2010). ------------------------------------------------------------ That way editors can create simple counters without bugging you to create image based counter, which would be overkill for many purposes. -- Regards Rajko, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
