[opensuse-conference] Questions about the Icinga workshop
by Lars Vogdt 11 Jul '13

11 Jul '13

Hi Guys Thanks for accepting my proposed talks and the monitoring workshop! I like to know if you have any concrete ideas especially for the workshop - here is what I have in mind for it: * Target: 8-15 people (pre-registration would be very appreciated! Can this be marked on the final agenda?) * can you provide a dedicated room for the 4 hours incl. Beamer and whiteboard ? * Attendees should bring a Laptop with them, pre-installed with openSUSE. We will install the latest packages from the server:monitoring OBS repository locally. Can this be announced together with the registration link for the workshop? * We need a dedicated network for the "hands on" part. I want to avoid a scan/monitoring of all the other attendees of the conference. I guess a 16 port switch together with some cables should be ok. I might be able to take the hardware with me, just want to avoid additional weight for my flight. :-) with kind regards, Lars BTW: is there a packaging workshop planned for this year? If not, what do you think if we should arrange some? -- Lars Vogdt <Lars.Vogdt(a)suse.com> - OPS Engineering Services Team Lead - SUSE Linux Products GmbH - GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany - HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-conference+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-conference+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-conference] scheduling on monday
by Jos Poortvliet 08 Jul '13

08 Jul '13

Heya all, I do notice from the schedule: https://conference.opensuse.org/osem/conference/osc2013/schedule#2013-07-22 that there are sessionss on Monday which seem important. This would be a soft day for community meetups and such - I would not have sponsor talks there (Georg, Hans de Raad), just BoF's. Note that there will be no video recording and no networking materials from SUSE (all materials from SUSE will be packed on Sunday night and will be send back to NUE on Monday). I thought we would do this year "quality over quantity" and that would mean putting good talks (and I see Georg Greve here!) on the main days and no important content on Monday... Community stuff like the discussion about art and branding is perfectly fine but the other three make no sense I think. It's not my call, I'm just saying this seems bad to me. Soft day = people leave... Cheers, J

So in order not to waste time, I suggested to Stella to publish the info page we made together, at conference website. Also it would help the article I wrote to be published at o.o news prior to PR. Its on your discretion when, but I suggest to make it the running week. Afterwards I can make an introduction post to both these page through my blog which is part of FSFE & Greek Open Source Community Blog Planets. Then we can have the PR as well.

That's great news. Anyways, I might typed it wrong. GNOME and friends of GNOME gahtering inside openSUSE community. Gathering meaning go out and drink and eat something. Anyways, if that's not possible, let me know. It's less preparation for me.

[opensuse-conference] "About openSUSE Conference" paragraph
by Konstantinos Boukouvalas 24 Jun '13

24 Jun '13

I need to add a "About openSUSE Conference" paragraph at the end of the PR in order to complete its syntax and announce the Exam Lab. I searched the conference website for, but no luck. Can someone provide me an official "about"? It is important since there is less than a month to the oSC13. Once I get that, I have to ask for a statement by Jim Lacey, LPI CEO and we 're on the air! See an example at the bottom of this PR: http://www.lpi.org/news/lpi-joins-linux-foundation Regards, Kostas Operations Manager LPI MA Greece -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-conference+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-conference+owner(a)opensuse.org

So I suggest we publish this on news.opensuse.org. Would you please review it, I made a number of changes: https://news.opensuse.org/?p=16119&preview=true Some feedback: your writing style is excellent but sometimes a bit too long- winded and honestly, I kind'of missed a point to the article. I suggest you really try to have a clear goal in mind when you write. I'm not saying I'm any better (hell you should see or hear me ramble sometimes, ask anyone who knows me), just offering advice to get better :D Now if you have any changes you'd like to make, just let me know and I will make them. We could possibly publish this article first (tomorrow 12:00 UTC) if you'd like? /J > Thanks > Operations Manager > LPI MA Greece > > > 2013/6/12 Konstantinos Boukouvalas <boukouvalas(a)lpi.org.gr> > > > OK, great. > > > > I'm also finishing syllabus' at LPI Greece new bi-lingual website > > today and tomorrow, and I project that Monday 17 we will have the > > first draft for PR, so 18th (one month to the oSC) we will have the > > final drafts coordinated with Stella. > > > > I will also commit to come with openSUSE t-shirt and not my tie, since > > I consider myself a member of openSUSE community ( it will be July > > after all :P ). > > > > Regards > > > > Operations Manager > > LPI MA Greece > > > > 2013/6/12 Jos Poortvliet <jos(a)opensuse.org>: > > > On Wednesday 12 June 2013 08:23:20 Konstantinos Boukouvalas wrote: > > >> RESEND FOR THE LIST(S) > > >> (*Sorry, I use html emails all the time*) > > > > > > You can disable this if you've got a decent mail client ;-) > > > > > >> Dear Jos, Kostas, > > >> > > >> Thank you for your compliments.
