Hi, I'm Thomas Schulte from Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. My first SuSE Linux version was 7.1, I think. After configuring my first apache webserver and beeing online for about 5 minutes (via modem and "every second billing") I knew that this would be the beginning of a great friendship. :-) My current hardware consists of * a desktop machine (AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+) * an HTPC (Intel Celeron E1500) * an netbook (Asus EEE PC 1000H) * a brand new root-server (Intel Core i7-920) with VMware Server + VMs At the moment I'm interested in KDE desktop and FreeNX, because I'd like to work in a VM on my remote server to take advantage of it's power. :-) In times of not programming Java, I'm working on my mail-/webserver environment or I'm experimenting with KIWI and SuSE Studio to create a customized ThinClient system. In addition, I have a good knowledge about some server daemons like DHCP, DNS, Postfix, Cyrus IMAPd, Apach2, MySQL, ... My timezone is UTC +2 (Daylight Saving Time). At the moment I'm not sure where to start in this new group, but I think that an IRC meeting and (of course) this mailing list is going to organize the different options and tasks. :-) Regards, Thomas Am Thursday 10 September 2009 14:45:49 schrieb Spencer French:
Considering images for m7 should be around now/soon I was wondering what other members of the team thought our plan should be for this far along in the dev cycle?
And also what testing preferences each member has as well as available hardware so we can all have a rough idea of each others work flow.
I have 2 desktop machines both x86/64 as well as a macbook pro (early 2009) and a newish dell laptop, so I can do resume/suspend testing of those models. As far as preference I am really interested in the kde desktop/yast/zypper and xorg, although of course I will help with anything I can.
Also just as a heads up at work I will be posting from spf@varndean.ac.uk and at home from spencerpaulfrench@gmail.com.
