[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE Posters
by Kevin Dupuy 01 Jul '08

01 Jul '08

I've re-uploaded the SVG files for the three openSUSE posters I made earlier this year on my personal web server, so the links are back up on the Miscellaneous artwork page[1]. I've got posters with the topic of "Freedom", "Choice", and "Community". If anyone has any other ideas for posters, let's hear 'em ;-) [1]http://en.opensuse.org/Artwork/Miscellaneous#Poster And anyone interested in seeing these posters in (printed) action, from the openSUSE user group in Indonesia: http://lizards.opensuse.org/2008/05/27/preparation-for-opensuse-booth-on-ig… Have a lot of fun, ya'll! -- Kevin "Yo" Dupuy Public Mail <kevin.dupuy(a)opensuse.org> Yo.media: 225-590-5961 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] Screencasts
by Stephan Binner 01 Jul '08

01 Jul '08

Hello, http://en.opensuse.org/Screencasts looks like never really started :-( but screencasts are a nice way to present features (remember how often Duncan's video about early libzypp's speed got linked?). IMO screencasts can be also shown at booths to attract visitors (who doesn't get tired to do the same clicks again and again to show some feature all day long?). Is anyone interested in driving this forward? :-) Bye, Steve -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] Opensuse 11.0 boxed versions?
by Hylton Conacher (ZR1HPC) 30 Jun '08

30 Jun '08

Hi all, OpenSuSE 11.0 has reached maturity and has gone GM, and as a result has been released onto the download mirrors. Boxed versions are still not available however, unless they are on pre-order. Something in the marketing is wrong as if the software is release it should be available in all forms. Why must a person who is supporting the OpenSuSE distro by buying a boxed version have to wait longer for it than those who can download it? The software has gone public and yet some of the public cannot access it, and I speak for those who might want boxed sets and who have no distributor in their country i.e. South Africa, as well as pitiful line speeds. When are the boxed sets going to be available, not on pre-order, but as a live order as I have seen nothing on the announcements list ?

Actually it's packaged[1] for openSUSE <= 10.3 but not for openSUSE 11.0, yet. [1]http://packman.links2linux.org/package/kino -- Regards, Carlos Goncalves

[opensuse-marketing] 11.0 Feature Tour - Please Help
by Kevin Dupuy 19 Jun '08

19 Jun '08

So I've started the 11.0 Feature Tour at http://en.opensuse.org/11.0_Tour which is basically a "consumer" version of the reviewer's guide from Zonker. It includes basically screenshots of the different features, and is put in a way so most normal people who aren't tech journalists will have a place to find quick info on 11.0. So I do request the marketing team's help in growing out that page. I have a list of things I'd like to cover at the top of the page, so anyone willing to start there, that would be great. Also, there appears to be an issue with the images: no matter what I try, I can't get them to go to the left or right of the text. They always want to go on top. So if someone knows a fix, please apply it and tell me what I screwed up ;-) Thanks! -- Kevin "Yo" Dupuy Public Mail <kevin.dupuy(a)opensuse.org> Yo.media: 225-590-5961 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org
