Hello,
as I wrote some time ago in response to the announcement that issue #65 is
ready for transaltion, under "Status Updates", "Wiki / Communication /
Events", is a one year old blog entry from Klaus Kämpf, who wrote about the
Open Source Meets Business Conference, but not 2009 but 2008. ;-)
Best greetings

Stephen,
As Pavol Rusnak mentioned earlier, all of Eucalyptus' target distros are handled by the Build Service. Surely we should be trying to convince them to use our service and enlightening them that by doing so enables them to have maximum reach with minimal effort.
Regards,
Andy

Subject: [opensuse-project] vote for suse on the eucalyptus poll
Lets make openSUSE more visible and vote up suse on the eucalyptus poll.
http://www.micropoll.com/akira/mpview/564200-152224
The long and short is that eucalyptus is a private internal ec2 cloud.
Thanks,
Stephen

One of the real problems with this is that we can't get openSUSE/SLE
on amazon ec2, so the numbers aren't going to be fair. You might
wonder why the crap Novell hasn't gotten on top of this, they have! :)
Unfortunately, from what I understand is that the version of xen we
use is too new to work on ec2. So this is of no fault of Novell, but
the systems and versions that amazon is using :(

Hello Mates,
the Chief of the "Linuxwoche" in Austria asks about the presence from
the openSUSE Project in the "Linuxwoche" in Wien.
Is anything planned?
If yes, then you can write to daja(a)linuxwochen.at for the Instructions.

Hi all,
I'm a japanese user, and I decided to join to opensuse community.
To begin with, I tried to help -ja team to translate the latest Weekly News.
And then, I found a typo (it would be) in the latest Weekly News #65...
Section [openSUSE Forums]
> # IBM May Buy Sun??
> "@microchip spotted this interesting read, which has raised some interesting comments from forum members"
"@microchip" should be "microchip8 " ?
Sorry for trivial.
