RE: [opensuse-marketing] SocNet Discussion during Community Week
by Andrew Wafaa 14 May '09

14 May '09

I'd like us to think about XMPP/Jabber. I know we briefly discussed it in -project (at least Pascal, Stephan, a few others & myself did). To summarise the discussion we had, it was decided that having a medium available with no-one present was pointless and counter productive. One big advantage that XMPP has is thatt corporate firewalls are more likely to allow the traffic through where as IRC is blocked by default. It is also possible to bridge between XMPP & IRC thus giving people a way of joining the regular medium. Personally I like XMPP, but it should only really be used if there is enough demand. Knowing what the preferred medium is in different regions is key. It maybe that one method is preferred in a particular region but not in others. This isn't necessarily ideal but will need looking into as to why (cultural etc). I can setup a poll today to see what people think if tou like? Regards, Andy -- Sent from a Nokia E71 Andrew Wafaa, openSUSE Member: FunkyPenguin -----Original Message----- From: Bryen Sent: 14/05/2009 04:22:59 Subject: [opensuse-marketing] SocNet Discussion during Community Week Today, we had a very lively discussion about the use of Social Networking in promoting openSUSE. We came to several conclusions as well as identifying some areas we'd like to explore in more depth. We also agreed that we would like to continue the discussion this Friday in a second Community Week session and ensure it is at a time that is accessible for the EMEA and APAC regions. In fact, we most definitely would like to ensure APAC representation at this session. We're in agreement that folks like Sartoru and Vavai would be great for offering insight into the APAC regions. So, we're putting the question to you all... What time would be most effective for everyone to join in a discussion in #opensuse-marketing? I'm willing to get up earlier in my daytime to make sure this happens for you all. Would 10:00 UTC be good for you all? Or earlier? Please let us know ASAP so we can announce a time. So, what did we talk about? 1) Facebook It is clear that we need to address the growing presence of openSUSE supporters on Facebook. There are approximately 4,500 supporters spread out across two groups. And in our opinion, they're neglected and a valuable pool of supporters that we need to bridge. What's also interesting about the Facebook group members is that there seems to be a strong presence of U.S. people. Something we lack presence in most other areas of openSUSE Community. 2) Digg We would like to set up a monthly Digg party where we gather up good and useful articles and everyone diggs those articles. If we can find a method to spread the word to digg a list of articles (not just any openSUSE articles, but good and relevant ones) then we can boost our presence on the web and in google searches. 3) Wiki I will be creating a wiki page that will gather all this information in the next day before our next meeting. 4) Blogging tips We will create a new page that provides advice to our community for how to increase traffic to their sites. Effective plugins that help, tips and tricks, information about SEO, etc. This one could be a bit of a challenge and anyone who has ideas about SEO, please step up and offer your advice. 5) Other areas to look into: Twitter, Laconica/identi.ca, dzone.com, LinkedIn. Any others to suggest? What about social networking services in non-English speaking regions? What can we tap into there? And should we appoint a "guru" for each of the different services? Someone who can study and understand and provide guidance to the rest of the marketing team about a particular service? It is very difficult for any one of us to become experts on all services, but if we divide and conquer :-), we could cover a lot more ground. Looking forward to hearing back from you all and getting to a meeting on Friday! -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member openSUSE-GNOME Team Member GNOME-A11y Team Member www.bryen.com (Personal Blog) www.planet-a11y.net (Feed aggregator of the Accessibility Community) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

When I mentioned creating a poll, it was more to find out what methods in general people prefer. It wasn't solely about XMPP. I agree on the issues it raises which is why I agrreed that it wasn't a priority, but something that should be kept in mind.

Just my thoughts on this before we poll: * What problem does this solve that we need to address right now? I see one thing: Corporate firewalls are a problem for potential participants who might be able to connect via Jabber. The counter to this is that there are other services that can do the same thing, and I *think there are probably free Jabber servers with IRC connectors that are available already. So, would we be better off just pointing people to those? Some people don't like IRC but use Jabber. What's our net in terms of additional participants here? * Do we have someone to administer this and actual hardware to run it? Right now, we're still working out kinks in our "official" infrastructure, I'm not sure adding Jabber to the mix w/in the next six months is advisable. * Does this stack up higher than other problems we have on our plate? I'd say probably not, though it's a good idea. My vote would be to put this on the wiki as a future action item to tackle when we have other project infrastructure issues solved. Other thoughts?

[opensuse-marketing] New Marketing Session added to Community Week
by Bryen 14 May '09

14 May '09

Folks, Tomorrow, 13-May-2009, at 19:30 UTC, the Marketing team has added a new session "Maximizing Social Networking for openSUSE." We'll be discussing our existing efforts with various services such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Digg, etc. and how we can improve our presence on those services. This should prove to be a very interesting session and I think something that we all can join the conversation on. See you all in #opensuse-marketing on the Freenode IRC Channel! -- Bryen Yunashko openSUSE Board Member openSUSE-GNOME Team Member GNOME-A11y Team Member www.bryen.com (Personal Blog) www.planet-a11y.net (Feed aggregator of the Accessibility Community) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] Community Week Schedule: Marketing
by Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier 12 May '09

12 May '09

Hi all, In case you're not checking the Community Week schedule (though I hope you are, as well as blogging and Tweeting/Denting about it!) I wanted to send a heads-up to the list for this week. We've got a few items on the schedule for marketing, in particular from 13:00 UTC to 21:00 UTC Tuesday, to work on the launch plan for 11.2. http://en.opensuse.org/Community_Week/Marketing_Schedule What I'm hoping is we can work throughout the day to create the launch plan on the wiki. If you can't be available during that time, no worries -- send ideas to the mailing list, add discussion to the wiki, etc. And the discussion will be logged. Also - if other marketing team members want to set up sessions, feel free to do so - I only added the time I could reasonably plan to be in channel. If anyone else would like to lead a discussion or session, feel free to add it to the schedule on the wiki and run with it. Thanks, Zonker -- Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier <jzb(a)zonker.net> openSUSE Community Manager: http://zonker.opensuse.org Blogs: http://blogs.zdnet.com/community | http://www.dissociatedpress.net Twitter: jzb | Identica: jzb http://identi.ca/group/opensuse/members -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

by Inga Herber 09 May '09

09 May '09

Hello Opensuse, we would like to invite you to take part in the next Free and Open Source Software Conference (FrOSCon 2009). FrOSCon is a two-day conference on Free Software and Open Source, which takes place on 22nd and 23rd August 2009 at the University of Applied Sciences Bonn- Rhein-Sieg, in St. Augustin near Bonn, Germany. Focus of the conference is a comprehensive range of talks about current topics in Free Software and Open Source. We also have an exhibition area, where Free Software projects can present themselves and a few rooms we can offer to Free Software projects to organize developer meetings or even their own program. As you can see there are various ways to participate at this year's FrOSCon. If you want to give a lecture visit http://www.froscon.de/en/program/call-for- papers.html for further information. The Call for Papers will end on 23rd May 2009. If you as a project want to participate, please visit https://callforprojects.froscon.org/ and sign up for a room or booth, depending on your needs. Since the demand for developer rooms and exhibitors exceeds the number of rooms and booth we can offer, we need a short summary (1-2 paragraphs) of what you plan to do. On the basis of this text we will choose the projects that appear most promising to us. The deadline for submission of projects is 31st May 2009. If you have questions concerning the developer rooms feel free to contact projects(a)froscon.org. For questions concerning a booth contact exhibitors(a)froscon.org We hope to see you at FrOSCon.

[opensuse-marketing] Get Ready for openSUSE Community Week!
by Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier 07 May '09

07 May '09

The first openSUSE Community Week[1] is just around the corner. May 11 through May 17 we'll be hosting live sessions in IRC to help grow the openSUSE Community. Community week is all about helping new contributors get started with openSUSE and getting existing contributors together to mentor new contributors, and working together on major projects. We'll be hosting a week of IRC tutorials, Q&A's, and jam sessions on a number of topics. Learn to work with the testing/QA team, create packages, work with the openSUSE Build Service, help work on the wiki, or get involved with the GNOME and KDE teams. There's something for everybody[2]. Schedule and Topics =================== The Community Week schedule is posted on the openSUSE Wiki[3]. Each topic has its own schedule, and new sessions are still being added -- so be sure to check the schedule throughout the week for new and exciting sessions. If you have general project questions or aren't sure where to go during Community Week, talk to us in #opensuse-project on Freenode[4]. And, as always, questions about contributing to openSUSE are always welcome on the openSUSE Project mailing list[5]. Help with Community Week ======================== Even if you're not leading any sessions, you can still pitch in and help with Community Week. We need contributors to "staff" IRC channels to mentor new contributors, and to spread the word about openSUSE Community Week. If you'd like to lead a session, there's still time. Contact Zonker[6] with a topic, abstract, and times you can hold sessions. To mentor and answer questions, just show up! The more the merrier, so if you have some free time during the week, pop into IRC and lend a hand. Spread the Word! ================ You can also help make Community Week a success by spreading the word. Blog about it, talk about it on Facebook, tell your friends and coworkers, get the word out however you can. You can also post a counter on your Web site[7] or just link to the Community Week[1] page. If you're on Twitter or Identi.ca, you can follow @opensuse and help spread the word by RT'ing our Community Week updates, and forward this announcement to anyone who might be interested in contributing. Every little bit helps! Not feeling very creative? Just post the following on your blog: Join me for openSUSE Community Week The openSUSE Project is running a Community Week from May 11 through May 17. Learn how to get involved with the openSUSE Project and become a contributor to openSUSE. You can help promote the use of Linux everywhere and help make openSUSE the best Linux distro for new and experienced Linux users. You don't have to be a developer to participate. We're looking for all kinds of contributors: writers, translators, artists, teachers, and (of course) developers to help shape the openSUSE Linux distribution. Learn more about openSUSE and Community Week at: http://http://en.opensuse.org/Community_Week Spread the word and get ready to have a lot of fun at Community Week starting Monday, May 11th in IRC!

So, the CDs and stickers will be used, so far, for the openSUSE Day here in Chile. Me and other guys are working on it and has not been scheduled yet. Once the event is defined in details, I'll post it at opensuse.org. If we need more goodies, I will try to ask for it three or four weeks before the event.

[opensuse-marketing] Call for Participations: openSUSE Summit 2009
by Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier 05 May '09

05 May '09

The openSUSE Project is opening the call for participation in the openSUSE Summit 2009[1], to be held September 17 through 20 in Nuremberg, Germany. We're looking for contributors to openSUSE, upstream projects, and members of the openSUSE community to participate[2]. The summit will be an opportunity to bring the openSUSE contributor community together to share ideas, experience, hack, and help guide the direction of the project. So we're looking to members of the community to give presentations, tutorials, and lead birds of a feather and panel sessions in several tracks: * Community: Marketing, translations, wiki, documentation, forums, and openSUSE governance. * Desktop: Topics related to the openSUSE desktop, including KDE, GNOME, Xfce, and applications. * Server: Use of openSUSE on the server or development of server applications. * Toolchain and System: The kernel, YaST, packaging, and openSUSE Build Service. * Open Day: Saturday will include a track for openSUSE users and people new to Linux. If you're interested in presenting at the openSUSE Summit, fill out the Call for Participation Form[3] with all of the details for your participation. We're accepting talks, tutorials, birds of a feather, and panel discussion submissions. (Birds of feather sessions will be scheduled after hours.) The summit will not be entirely composed of prepared presentations, so we will be accepting a limited number of proposals. Deadline ======== All proposals must be submitted by May 20th. To submit a proposal, fill out the form[3] before 12:00 UTC on May 20.
