We received the following email and to me it sounds like there are some ways
we could lower the bar to make contribution easier (including better
documentation).
Is this something you want to consider doing after osc11?

Subject: annoying the new Suse user

Hi,
Now, I appreciate that this is only going to everyone the once,
but it is a regular pain in the rectum.
Just thought I'd let you know, because the *first few minutes* are SOooo
important, n'est-ce pas?
So perhaps you could just c*onsider the new user* and change something.
And this is just so ANNOYING:
Well, I just found a report on the Suse site which I wanted to add to, just
to be helpful & further the cause.
This means I need to register with Novell.
OK, fine, did that.
The the pita starts.
It seems Novell sends a 'plz confirm' message to new-user's email.
Yeah, fine, but it *doesn't tell you that **that *(and *not everyone* does
do that, note),
so I waste valuable effort-seconds getting my Suse attempted login
refused.
pita.
Right, I do the confirm, log into Suse.
But, again pita, I've now lost the ref for the bug report, & can't get back
there.
Back-arrow on browser just goes into a hole, lost, & suffer pain.
Not even in the history, for some reason.
(plz excuse the ref to back, & hole, & pain)
SO there we are
Change something, make it better?
Thinking of you,
Rggards,
bill

Hi,
regarding sprint documentation, I wanted to share current version,
mainly what I added to the obs best practices is here:
http://michal.hrusecky.net/tmp/obs-best-practices/cha.obs.best-practices.up…
Any feedback is welcome. You can find also current snapshot of the
whole book on the following URL:
http://michal.hrusecky.net/tmp/obs-best-practices
Will create patch and will work on getting it included. Waiting for any
feedback and suggestions what should I incorporate, otherwise I think it
is done.

The milestones are now officially "on hold" until osc11 is done. We
all need to help out to make osc11 another success. That's why the
story for each and every one of us this week is:
Write a detailed blog post about what you are going to do at
osc11 until next Monday. The purpose is to show people what will
happen from us and to drive traffic to conference.o.o to get
registrations up.
