Hi, Sascha forgot a few things. First, we have the list post here before we have it filled with the persons from the old list. Because we want to discuss she as structure ;) next point is, we think both the ambassadors must be easy to find & to contact! We both visited the fedora sites an looked after the ambassadors - directly linked on the frontpage. And on SUSE I must use the search function to find the ambassors, then I must find the list, then I must find a guy and visit his site maybe there ist no contact adress! For the most things that an ambassador that an ambassador has to do isnt necessary to speak english. Many Germans dont like make an first contact in this language. I think its better to make lists in here native language such as ambassadors-de and put them on this site for an contact. For countrys we have no ambassadors yet maybe its possible to use an list from an neighbor-country with the same language (for example ambassadors-de for austria and swiss) maybe then we can find ambassadors in this country. br Sirko/gnokii Am Freitag, den 05.06.2009, 19:31 +0200 schrieb Sascha 'saigkill' Manns:

gnokii and i has prepared an new Ambassador List (as Proposal). You can find it under: http://en.opensuse.org/Talk:Ambassador/List . In my view this is an better Actual we haven't imported the other List.

Looks good. The only comment I have is that by pre-populating all the regions, we get the "wow, look how many areas *aren't* covered" look. The positive there, of course, is that people can quickly see where we need more Thats the Idea behind them. If we have so many Ambassadors as Fedora,

It is possible to merge Regions from the List. We can make Sublists from this Page to local Ambassador Lists.

Not sure I'm following the sublists comment - could you elaborate? If we have as example many Ambassadors in Germany and a lot of People and the Rest of Europe too, then the List is maybe a Jungle. So we can set this Page as Index, and if anybody klicks to Germany, he comes to the German Subpage. But this all is just an Proposal, and not completly elaboirated. -- more http://karl-tux-stadt.de/ktuxs http://www.xing.com/go/invita/11208336

While I see the value in the 'searchablity' of a list, I think that a visual indicator would be more effective in communicating where Ambassadors are, something like a Frappr map.

No reason we can't have both... Want to set up a Frappr map?

Better no, somebody can call you coward :-)

Would it be possible to install the MediaWiki Google Map plugin, so that the wiki page data can be used to generate the map instead of registering on a separate site?

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Google_Maps

Theoretically yes, but the plan is to put oline new Mediawiki version, then add extensions. It is work is progress, so put the request to http://en.opensuse.org/Wiki_Team/Requested_Extensions so that our technical guys have overview what should be considered. I left link without comments, so go ahead and add it. -- Regards, Rajko http://news.opensuse.org/category/people-of-opensuse/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
