Hi, counter.opensuse.org still refers to the conference. It's time to set it back to the distro I suppose. Who is responsible for that? cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-conference+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-conference+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-conference] Question
by Andy Silva 27 Jul '13

27 Jul '13

Hello friends Now that the Conference is over, I believe we will be moving on to the planning for the summit in the US this year. I know we have talked about a few graphic ideas and I have most of that with me. However, I would like to check on what the state of planning for the summit is. That way I can know what there is to help with. Thank you -- Andy (anditosan) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-conference+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-conference+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-conference] Workshop preregistration of attendees
by Tomáš Chvátal 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Hello my fellow attendees, we at openSUSE team have been faced with one slight difficulty. We need to track people interested in the workshops so we can assure you can fit in beforehand, tell you some info from the workshop authors where they tell you what you should have with you or what is the workshop plan, and lastly even collect your suggestions. For this purpose we created ad-hoc-hacky google docs file [1]. Where you are interested in the parts "Attendees list" which is obviously list of interested people (green is done by me to the amount of expected people to be there, it is NOT a hard limit, on the registration later on there will be printed sheet with the workshops which have the hardlimit, so you can write in even if you are not sure right now). Other list is "Atendees suggestions" which is just field where you can express your ideas what you expect from the event or what you wish from the author to do. I would also like to apologise that we didn't do this up-front during your registration, which we simply forgot (mea culpa) but for the next conference it is on the list and will be implemented in the OSEM tool which handles our sweet conference management. See you all on the conference Tom [1] http://tinyurl.com/qgqrc8t

[opensuse-conference] Wrong Olympic Museum spot on default Google Maps
by Efstathios Iosifidis (aka diamond_gr) 13 Jul '13

13 Jul '13

Hello, Many local people know about it. There's a wrong spot on Google Maps by default. That's why we made the map under http://goo.gl/maps/emmiw I already informed 2 people about this mistake. Daily remind via social networks is what I think as one solution. What else do you think we can do? Maybe send mass mail from OSEM platform? This is the wrong spot http://goo.gl/xnWJe Have phun, Stathis -- http://about.me/iosifidis http://eiosifidis.blogspot.gr http://blogs.gnome.org/eiosifidis Great leaders don't tell you what to do...

[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

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

08 Jul '13

Heya, Any chance we can switch my booth talk with Sam Tuke's Document Freedom Day talk? The 3 sessions before his talk are all part of the openSUSE Ambassador/Local Coordinator program, and so is mine (as I introduce the new merchandising). Perfect would be if my talk would be after Richard's talk and the talks by Alexjan and Max after that, moving Sam Tuke in my spot the next day. If that is possible, that'd be awesome. /J

[opensuse-conference] press conference
by Jos Poortvliet 07 Jul '13

07 Jul '13

It's usually good to have the press meet the board and some important speakers (keynote speakers). I think the best time is Lunch on Saturday. We would put the board and keynote speakers in front of the press for 20-30 minutes. It'd be nice to provide lunch in the room... I'm not sure if Georg has to leave early on Saturday, if so, he can't make it. What do we think? Jos

[opensuse-conference] Material shipment
by agustin benito bethencourt 04 Jul '13

04 Jul '13

Hi, we finally has come to a solution that, in order to be effective, will need support from the local organization. Juergen will be in charge of the shipment back. Since no SUSE employees will be there to help, but Lars, we will need some local volunteers to help Juergen packaging our material[1]. Is this possible? If it is, the first option will be to package everything right when the conference finishes and ship it two hours later, so we have enough time to package[2]. Is this option possible? The second option would be to find a storage room and send it back on Tuesday. [3]. we will need transportation. Since we are doing the shipment this afternoon, we would need an answer as soon as possible, so we provide the plan to the shipment company. This is a requirement. [1] Can the local team support us to package the material after the conference [2] The venue will be open two hours later to pick it up? [3] If [2] do not work, where can we storage the material until the following morning and who can transport it there? Saludos -- Agustin Benito Bethencourt openSUSE Team Lead at SUSE abebe(a)suse.com

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.
