Hi all,
April 16-17 in Antwerp, Belgium, the Linux Open Administration Days will
take place. This free event offers a chance for LPI certification as
well as meeting and talking to linux sysadmins. There is a call for
presentations here: http://www.loadays.org/content/call-presentations
If you want to go and give a talk there about openSUSE tech - that's be
awesome. If you can't afford to go there due to travel or hotel costs,
let me know, we might be able to work something out ;-)
cheers,
Jos
The time is growing near for our second-ever Marketing Hackfest on 15-16
September 2011 immediately following the openSUSE Conference. As a
reminder to everyone, you do not have to be in Nuremberg in order to
participate as we can do both in-person an and online.
I have added two new sections to our hackfest page at
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:12.1_Marketing_Hackfest
1. Suggested Topics
There is a list of suggested topics and tasks to focus on during the
hackfest. This is not a complete absolute list but merely suggestions
and we will all agree on the day of Hackfest which items to focus on.
Please feel free to add more topics or adjust existing topics. I will
be adding links to some resources over the next couple of days.
2.. Results
In order to keep track of what we have accomplished, we have a results
section now. If you have completed a task or needs continued work
after the hackfest please make note in the Results section.
Also, I want to mention that if any of you feel ambitious and want to
get started (or even complete a task) now, feel free to do so! The more
we complete before the hackfest, the more other topics we can
address. :-)
Again, looking forward to seeing you all at the hackfest and online.
Thanks to everyone for participating!

Hi everybody,
when I put together the events for the Weekly News, I often recognize
that obviously, some of the events added to the Ambassador Event List
[1] are incomplete. Most of them don't even have a date, but are only
dedicated to e.g. "? September 2011". In addition, most websites listed
for the events are invalid links or empty pages.
Please! Fill out the events completely, so that I can add them to the
Weekly News and help spreading the information about your events around
the world!
It would also be great, if you could send me a short personal mail to my
address some weeks before the events, so that I can get all the
information in my Inbox!
Thanks for your cooperation!

Hello my friends,
After Berlin, I was thinking something for Greek community but maybe
it's better to go global.
Well, the guy at his talk said that we must take feedback from the end
users since developers just create their software without asking the
needs of the end user.
Since the meaning of selling isn't that the seller convienced the buyer
but the seller covered buyer's needs, I was thinking to create a form
that we can print and have with us at the events (simple paper). Some
questions about our product or some general questions about GNU/Linux
(replies yes/no).
Maybe that way we can help our developers to make a better product.

Hi all,
Sorry about the complete lack of clarity and explanation on the
marketing hackfest idea. Most of you knew we would do it - but
what/how/when/where was unclear.
Let me attempt to clarify:
As you'll be at oSC anyway, adding a few hotel nights for a meeting is
easy! We can get some work done, in preparation for the next openSUSE
release for example; or on folders, flyers and other artwork; or on the
ambassador program; and of course have some MORE fun... It will happen
the two days after the conf, 15 and 16 of September.
The meeting needs: hotel nights for all of the participants; a meeting
room; and FUN!
The fun comes by itself and the meeting room will be at the openSUSE
office. The hotel nights work like this: I pay. As in, EVERY
participant, if you had sponsorship for the conference or not, can send
me the bill and I will reimburse 2 nights like we did for the conf
sponsorship: up to the cheapest reasonable option which is about 45 euro
a night, I believe. So you have to fill in a form, attach the receipts,
SUSE will then pay the receipt value up to 90 euro.
Let me know if you have any questions (or corrections)...
