openSUSE Magazine

by differentreality

Hi all! One of the ideas that popped up during the marketing hackfest here today was that of making an openSUSE magazine with focus on the conference proceedings and the cool stuff that happened since the last conference. The magazine would contain articles on the main highlights of the past year (Year is the time period between two conferences), interviews with key people, reviews and articles about the current conference etc. We would like to get a feedback on the idea and a few key topics that you think should be covered. Any authors who want to help with articles, please say so on the mailing list as we need more people to work on the articles. The topics, however, should focus on either key events that took place since last conference (like tumbleweed, evergreen, connect etc) or should be an article about oSC11 (or any particular session of it). We would also like a few miscellaneous topics that relates to openSUSE and linux at large. I hope all of you would like the idea and would contribute to our efforts to make openSUSE even more famous and awesome. Please let us know your thoughts (& your willingness to help). For additional info you can reply to the mailing list or send an email to differentreality(a)gmail.com ( plz use as subject: openSUSE magazine ) Regards, N.B.Prashanth - nbprash.mit(a)gmail.com Stella Rouzi - differentreality(a)gmail.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-ambassadors] Re: [opensuse-marketing] Feedback form for events

by Stathis Iosifidis (aka diamond_gr)

Hello friends, Finally I've found time to create the form. You saw that I was traveling Greece to promote openSUSE (all alone :-( ). Since we didn't have any other changes, I made a Google form. You can find it here http://bit.ly/nUymen I remind you that the file you can print is: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8327991/openSUSE_marketing_survey_draft_v2.odt I see that the system gives a calc file that we can process the results. Mr Clark, Jos, AJ, or Henne (I know you're on vacation now) please tell me to share the file with you. Tell me if this is OK. Thanks for your support Have a lot of fun Stathis -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help(a)opensuse.org

SFD event at Hong Kong

by Koushik Kumar Nundy

Hi all, I participated in a Software Freedom Day[1] event on Saturday, held at the City University of Hong Kong[2], at which Hong Kong Linux Users' Group[3] were one of the primary organisers. I plan to write a detailed report and will post it and the photos as soon as I get some time. Meanwhile, some basic data for starters: Turnout: Over 100 Topics covered at talks: MeeGo, Java, 3D modelling hardware(Reprap), free drivers, Python, etc Distros present : Mainly Debian, some Ubuntu, a fedora guy, 2 redhat guys, a couple of Meego people, and myself(openSUSE). Projects present(non-distro): Mozilla, GNU(saw no people, only goodies), Creative Commons, Java, Python, GNOME. DVDs distributed: 50 promo DVDs, 20 Li-f-e DVDs, 5 KDE Live CDs, 10 downloaded DVDs, 5 copied ISOs off my laptop. (Unfortunately, I had too few DVDs, and demand was quite appreciable) I mostly distributed a copy of [4] with the DVDs, mainly because most seemed to be non-beginners, and potential contributors even in the short term. It would probably have been better if some goodies/sticker could be arranged, but I was not sure if I could attend.

Sorry for the cross-post, but although these seems to be an ambassador presence, most SFD reports are coming in on the marketing list. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-ambassadors] openSUSE Magazine

by Piyoosh Mukhija

I believe it'd be a good idea to not just include events, but some tutorials/troubleshooters as well. In such a case, the magazine can be more attractive to the new/novice openSUSE/Linux users.
