Hi All Please welcome Benjamin to the crowd, he is 12 years old and is an excellent web dev and also contributes to Ubuntu. He also uses openSUSE and is excited about the prospects of joining the team ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Benjamin Donald-Wilson Date: Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 2:32 PM Subject: Re: Ambassador To: Manu Gupta Cc: ambassador-welcome@opensuse.org Hi all, Question 1:* What have you done already for openSUSE? I have been actively promoting openSUSE for a while now (too long ago) I also help my local community with fixing problems from wi-fi card to monitor. Question 2:* What are your plans for promoting openSUSE? Please tell us what you  want to do the next 6 months. My plans for the next 6 months are simple. My plan is to promote openSUSE as much as every. I am also trying to aim to help 50 new users change over the next 6 months. Question 3: Are you ready to start promoting openSUSE? Yes I am. I am now more than ready to help promote openSUSE. Question 4:* What do you think is the best kept secret of openSUSE? I would say SUSEStutio and SUSEStudio :) Question 5: * Why do you love to do this? This would be the hardest question. I would say I hate unfree OSes. Question 6: * How did you start with with Linux/openSUSE? What is your level of  experience? I started with Linux in 2007 using both Ubuntu and openSUSE. My level of experience is intermediation to advance. I hope I have fun with the ambassador program. ================ Yours sincerely, Ben Donald-Wilson (Age 12) ================ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJOAbGqAAoJEM8sCcnYyN+rusIIAJUaxsqMAup423MNbrh2qr7t hwW75//Kt5SVGiQLmWXQLthd2/KuUSS0Kk4O/S7W2uSjutHN4oZf4ZkFcykazkda OooXQxkp+KIY/NCYj3B8H078LXxvrnyP8j5H84FB0p29z5PDKWk63j3d0MTq+AW3 C27LAhMnkRTFTKhVLbqlkcGL/PZ/Ip84iHDDH1836Pv7h7UDu3bfCwWQR7pj862e KrJuvtPgX936ABW9vX9AkMX6rdVAaXtBq8lnW6gkWgaLdE5BYh51xdJ+jXE7zvf7 zvioJgay+7eRpHPsQZ3xr7xKw67QpWnXdk0KOp8l8oXk/hh6YB4rwaXeQQiS5Yc= =duCV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- On Thu, Jul 14, 2011 at 6:40 PM, Manu Gupta wrote:

Hi, I am Kostas and along with Manu we are the Ambassador Welcome team we are glad that you like to join openSUSE as an ambassador to promote openSUSE.

We have a couple of questions for you: * What have you done already for openSUSE? * What are your plans for promoting openSUSE? Please tell us what you  want to do the next 6 months. * Are you ready to start promoting openSUSE? * What do you think is the best kept secret of openSUSE? * Why do you love to do this? * How did you start with with Linux/openSUSE?

The ambassador program is currently pretty informal and we expect the ambassadors to organize themselves.  So, please coordinate with other ambassadors on the opensuse-marketing mailing list: * share with them what you like to do * share what you did, e.g. what kind of event did you organize, how  many people joined * share what you learned, explain what was great at your event, what  you want to improve * create material that is usefull for you and other ambassadors as  well

Also, as an ambassador, you're the expert on your country/region, so please share on the opensuse-marketing mailing list a bit about the openSUSE and the FOSS community in your country/region, e.g. what are their needs.

We'd like to send your answers to the opensuse-ambassadors list and thus introduce you as new ambassador.  Please keep this in mind when answering and if you don't agree, please tell us!

For adding you to the ambassador list at http://wiki.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Ambassadors_list, please tell me: your country, region/city and your user page in the wiki.

For details of creating a user page, see: http://news.opensuse.org/2010/07/12/new-wiki-what-now/

We know that openSUSE is very special to you and you might be tempted to give it a capital "O" but that's wrong, so please remember openSUSE is always spelled "openSUSE".
