If you organize a launch party...

by Jos Poortvliet

... Please add yourself to the wiki! http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Launch_parties (on the bottom of the page) That way people can find out there is a party in your neighborhood :D We plan to give launch parties some extra attention on Monday so if you put your party on the wiki, more people will know about it! If you're not comfortable with the wiki, email Kostas or me or the opensuse- ambassador list with your party information (location, time, date, link to a blog or site if you have any) and we will add it for you. We know there are way more than 6 parties and people should know about it. Help us help you organize a bigger & better party! And remember, we have materials we can send you. If your party is 2 weeks (europe, US) to 4 weeks after the release (most of the rest of the world) we can get you a nice box with openSUSE dvds, posters, stickers, flyers and other cool things. But of course you need to register, and soon, so we can plan what to send you. Thanks!! Jos

translations for the posters

by Jos Poortvliet

Heya all, I forgot to git add the translations of the posters, I am uploading them now. Will take a few hours on my slow connection, sorry! I would still appreciate it if someone with a fast computer and a fast connection could create PDF and PNG files for the many svg based posters. That makes it much easier for people to download and print! I am currently trying to find out what to print and how many. You can surely count on the Chinese and Portugese one to be printed, not sure about the rest yet :D Cheers, Jos

Heads up: 12.1 is coming, are you ready?

by Kostas Koudaras

Hey Ambassadors 20 days left for 12.1 to be released and once again we have the greatest Linux distribution to deliver to the world. openSUSE did the best for us so it is once again the time to ask ourselves, what can we do for openSUSE? Are you excited? Do you feel ready to go out there and evangelize our next release? Do you know about the up-coming features of 12.1? Have you blogged or wrote an article about it? Give us a link Did you started preparations for a Release Party? Do you have any fresh ideas we could work on? Do you have any problems or difficulties we can talk about? We are preparing for Google Code-In(http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:GCI), you can contribute there too(http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:GCI_Tasks), either by submitting an idea or by becoming mentor to one of the tasks, what do you think? Can you help? What are your plans? Let everybody know Let's Be Creative Let's Share Thoughts Let's Talk What better time than now? What better place than here?

Kablink for openSUSE?

by Roger Luedecke

I think using Kablink for openSUSE would be a great idea. Kablink is the opensource version of Novell Vibe OnPrem. I made an openFATE feature, and ask that before you vote on it, you be sure to follow the links to really understand the enormous potential this technology has of enabling us to do better work. https://features.opensuse.org/312952 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+owner(a)opensuse.org

Translation of openSUSE posters

by Jos Poortvliet

Heya all, I've just finished updating the posters we made last year at SCALE in the USA. They are ready for translation and I can then print a bunch in time for the openSUSE 12.1 release parties! Who's up for translating them? download the svg files at the link below, translate them (open in Inkscape, edit the text) and mail them back to me... I will try to get at least Spanish (in the USA and Brazil and Spain), Portugese (Brazil), Chinese (Taiwan/China) and a few European languages (German, French, more?) printed. Of course IF they are translated :D Find the posters here: https://github.com/openSUSE/artwork/tree/master/posters/openSUSE%20is%20coo… The files: FlyerFINALVERSION-OBS-STUDIO-KIWI_11x17-light.svg FlyerFINALVERSION-AppInstaller-Desktop-connect_11x17-light.svg FlyerFINALVERSION-Tumbleweed_11x17-light.svg FlyerFINALVERSION-OBS-STUDIO-KIWI_11x17.svg FlyerFINALVERSION-AppInstaller-Desktop-connect_11x17.svg FlyerFINALVERSION-Tumbleweed_11x17.svg I made the light ones new but can't really decide if they look better or not. I DO know the light ones will be easier to print, the normal ones can be problematic in that regard due to the heavy use of black which makes the paper wet and soft... We will have to see with the printers which ones they can print. We do kind'a need to get this translated before Wednesday so we can start printing... Thanks in advance! Cheers, Jos
