Talk about why you use openSUSE, what's going on in the project in general, what's new in openSUSE 11.0 (see Sneak Peeks series, reviewer guide)...
I'm now thinking of doing a talk at LRL about openSUSE and how the community is directly involved in the project/distro. This came about from a discussion at the last GNOME team meeting, and I think it would help dispell some of the misconceptions that still linger out there that openSUSE is a Novell puppet. Some of the items I'd like to cover are: *How the GNOME team selected their default BitTorrent Client *How contributors can help the upcoming distro using the new BuildService 1.0 *How community members get the hackers to help out - GNOME Team's Helping Hands initiative. *a11y - getting the message to _everyone_ If someone involved in the KDE (and any other) aspect of things could let me know about some of the initiatives where it is the community and not employees that are taking the lead would be most appreciated. Also do I need anything (yes/no from the project?) to submit my request to talk at the event?
