I am Manu Gupta, doing my engineering Manipal Institute Of Technology, Karnataka, India. I am a part of LUG over here and every year around mid august we organize linux install fests. I was hoping as the scheduled release date for openSUSE 11.3 is 15th July, 2010, can I get around 50 DVDs of the same. During this time, we have our new session beginning and we have around 100 freshmen attending our install fest. -- Regards MANU -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

For 11.2, there was a gap between the actual release and the DVD shipment. Since your install fest falls on mid-August, I believe ~1 month should be enough time to get the DVDs. I will send you some DVDs once they are ready. Send me the exact postal address by mail.

This topic is about Promo DVD, isn't it? One thing I'm wondering is, why iso image of the Promo DVD is available only for Novell persons? Note: Prome DVD is different from Install DVDs, of which images are available for everyone. If we can download the iso image directly, we can burn Promo DVDs by ourselves, when we need small amount of DVDs. Of course officially produced Promo DVDs look better than hand-made DVDs, but when we need only 10 DVDs, downloading iso and burning DVDs by ourselves might be a reasonable option. In addition, since only limited languages are available on Promo DVD, it would be helpful if we can get kiwi settings for Promo DVD, so that we can replace packages as needed and make customized Promo DVDs by ourselves. Imagine, if a Japanese user who is not used to Linux get Promo DVD at an event and try to use it in Live mode, she may feel disappointed because she can't handle Japanese with it. :-( Best, -- _/_/ Satoru Matsumoto - openSUSE Member - Japan _/_/ _/_/ Marketing/Weekly News/openFATE Screening Team _/_/ _/_/ mail: helios_reds_at_gmx.net / irc: HeliosReds _/_/ _/_/ http://blog.geeko.jp/author/heliosreds _/_/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Michl, could you give some details, please?
