Of course I wouldn't put the Netware forum totals in there. I wasn't even going to put the SLED and SLES numbers in. Just the openSUSE. -- Joe Harmon <jharmon(a)novell.com> Novell, Inc.

We have a group of around 30 sysops that monitor and provide support for Novells forums. http://support.novell.com/forums/sysop_info.html The issues that can't resolve are then taken to Novell support engineers (myself being one of them) and we provide the 2nd level support for these sysops. -- Joe Harmon <jharmon(a)novell.com> Novell, Inc.

I guess I should explain my reasoning a little more. Novell has dedicated resources to monitor the forums. These are both Novell employees and contractors that volunteer their time on a daily basis. This is to insure that information and issues get back to Novell and engineering. -- Joe Harmon <jharmon(a)novell.com> Novell, Inc.

[opensuse-project] How to help with openSUSE 10.3 Marketing
by Francis Giannaros 04 Oct '07

04 Oct '07

This is really for _all_ people in the openSUSE community (and in particular all the developers). I know some people think marketing is a dirty word, but unless you have a little marketing, even if you have the most technically excellent and best engineered product, people either aren't going to know about it, or not know about what it contains. So how can everyone help? I've listed three simple ways: * Blog! Yes, this includes you :-) I can't stress how important this is for getting news out to the online open source community. Second only to the village rumour, the information blogs carry travels faster than the speed of light,. They're one of the most obvious ways to make a lot of noise about something great. I often find that it's just too frequently the case that although SUSE has _great_ presence in open source projects, it's just not presented as well in open source blog planets. Let's change that :-) * Digg the story / +1 the Slashdot firehose entries. These sites are read by thousands of users. * Help out new users at release time. A new distribution release attracts a _lot_ of new users to the community, some which may or may not be temporary. A lot of the time users get simple problems at first, which can either make-or-break their openSUSE experience. Please be kind and try to help them! (IRC, Mailing Lists, Forum). openSUSE 10.3 rocks, so let's let others know :-) Kind thoughts, -- Francis Giannaros http://francis.giannaros.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] 10.3 Release Parties in Toronto?
by Justin Haygood 03 Oct '07

03 Oct '07

Anyone throwing any release parties in the vicinity of Toronto, Ontario, Canada? I'm currently vacationing in the area (about an hour from the CN Tower), and wouldn't mind celebrating yet another great release of openSUSE with other like minding individuals. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help(a)opensuse.org
