[opensuse-announce] openSUSE KDE community meeting 20071128T2200
by Will Stephenson 26 Nov '07

26 Nov '07

It's the KDE community's meeting time again. How can 2 weeks roll around so quickly? We must be having a lot of fun. This time we are experimenting with a later meeting to bring in people from other timezones. The meeting is at #opensuse-kde on irc.freenode.net (just start Konversation) at 10pm in London, England 11pm in Santa Maria di Leuca, Italy 2pm in Vancouver, BC 5pm in Raleigh, NC 7pm in Santiago, Chile The next meeting will be back at the regular time. Stephan Binner wrote up a Challenges page and discussing meeting these is the main topic. Also, the pile of patches and improvements that we have vs vanilla KDE needs a strategy to port those or upstream them. And if you're using the KDE 4 packages we have in http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE4/openSUSE_10.3 we'd love to see what you think of them or to help with any problems Until then, Will -- Desktop Engineer KDE Team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-announce+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-announce+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-announce] openSUSE Guiding Principles take effect
by Michael Loeffler 08 Nov '07

08 Nov '07

It's official: the openSUSE project Guiding Principles [http://en.opensuse.org/Guiding_Principles] are now in force. The Guiding Principles are a framework for the project and give everyone a clear view of who we are, what we stand for, what the project wants and how it works. The Guiding Principles document was created by the openSUSE community and is embraced by Novell - the founder and largest sponsor of the openSUSE project. This important document will help ensure the success and continued progress of the project. Along with the Guiding Principles, we are also launching the openSUSE Board to offer a central point of contact to the community and make community participation in project governance easier. The openSUSE Board [http://en.opensuse.org/Board] consists of both external community members and community members employed by Novell. We encourage all to support the Guiding Principles at https://users.opensuse.org/ . Create your profile and support the Guiding Principles. We want to especially thank all contributors to the Guiding Principles, and last but not least, all community members who make the openSUSE project such a success. Have a lot of fun!

[opensuse-announce] Wiki maintainers wanted
by Martin Lasarsch 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Hi, I hope i will reach more people on this list. Most wikis are very well maintained, thanks for that. Unfortunately some are not. Especially vi, es and is are not really up to date (last time i checked). No, i don't want to blame the maintainers, sometimes it's just lack of time ... If you are interested to join the wiki translation team, subscribe to opensuse-wiki for more information. If you work in a team it's not that much work to keep a few pages up to date. Thanks! reply to: is set to opensuse-wiki -- with kind regards, Martin Lasarsch, Core Services SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5 90409 Nürnberg GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) martin.lasarsch(a)suse.de - http://www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-announce+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-announce+help(a)opensuse.org
