openSUSE in Mauritius - a short story :)
by Nitin K Sookun 14 Apr '12

14 Apr '12

Hello guys, It's not very uncommon so see SUSE Enterprise Linux Servers within the company where I work. What amazed my yesterday, was when I went to collect a parcel at the Mauritius Post Parcel Office. I didn't bring my receipts along, so the customs officer advised my to use one of their PCs to print the receipts from paypal/ebay. I said ok and proceeded... What I find there?? A nice sweet old friend > openSUSE 10.2 Desktop :) The fact that the guys there are using openSUSE isn't as impressive as the fact that 'so many Mauritians must be using that PC to check/print their receipts'. And I believe it's the same computer that public is allowed to use to access internet for a small fee.

Welcome our new Ambassador from Mexico
by Kostas Koudaras 09 Apr '12

09 Apr '12

Hi Ambassador Please give a warm welcome to Aaron Luna, our new ambassador from Mexico.Below you can learn more about him and his relationship with openSUSE as he told us in his own words. What have I done already for openSUSE: I've done talks about the different distributions of linux and how pleasant surprise I found that 70% of viewers have felt a great curiosity to use openSUSE, in fact some of them used Ubuntu but when making a practice found openSUSE installation of the first view that was more pleasing to them, that was the trigger for initiating change to this great distribution ..... =) Plans for promoting openSUSE the next 6 months: I will make several events already in the first door, in the month of April is FLISOL (Latin American festival of free software installation), followed by several workshops and courses on Linux server configuration from March to August and in September the software freedom day event and obviously with openSUSE. Talks about why it is important to use an operating system that is free, create working groups with people who like the use of free sotware, ie generate a community of free software users, but specific to openSUSE, because something that I openSUSE really like is the versatility that it can work. All this in some Universities and Colleges I'm ready to start promoting openSUSE!!!!! Since few months I have been pushing harder promoting openSUSE and now I'll do even more strength, this is a project that will continue giving many achievements and I want to remain part of this promotion ...... =) Tthe best kept secret of openSUSE....... That is modern, safe, fast and stable, ready for the end user, especially prepared for the office, which is configured with a mouse, with a more than considerable selection of software available for installation, with great hardware recognition. Why do I love to do this? I love helping people, I enjoy sharing my knowledge and above all show that there are more possibilities that can help us in our daily lives, whether in the office, at home or with friends and openSUSE is a great tool that can help achieve this. How did I start with Linux/openSUSE? I started using openSUSE by the need to be present in my work when I was promoted to Network Administrator, I found that the servers were installed in telecommunications site were configured with Linux, specifically, with openSUSE. What is my level of experience? I am currently managing a network with servers configured with openSUSE and I am giving courses of installation and configuration of openSUSE. I can say that my level is administrator / instructor.

By now, most of you have heard the openSUSE Summit is officially announced. [1] What's next? Spread the word! :-) 1. We have a Facebook Event page. Please go to this page and a) add yourself, b) invite others to the Event page. The more people we spread the word to, the better awareness out there. 2. We have settled on #ossum12 as our official Summit hashtag for Twitter. Please use this to help promote the Summit. 3. I'm still learning this, but seems Pinterest is the latest rage in social media. I created a bulletin board with some pins at [3]. You can join Pinterest via Twitter or Facebook. Let me know and I'll add you as a contributor to the board. 4. We need people to maintain on Google+ and LinkedIn as well. I don't work on those networks, so someone else needs to volunteer, please. 5. We need Spanish-speaking translators to help spread the word to nearby Spanish-speaking countries as this will be a bi-lingual event. Thanks! Bryen M Yunashko Let's Engage! Collaborate!
