[opensuse-marketing] 11.2 Screenshots and Milestones
by Kevin "Yeaux" Dupuy 28 May '09

28 May '09

Happy Wednesday (or Thursday) everyone! In 11.1 and earlier, we would create a new page for each alpha/beta/RC pre-release of an openSUSE version. To me, this seems a bit unnecessary. Instead, I'm think we'd have an "11.2 Prerelease" page (this already exists, it actually looks like Beineri is thinking on the same track, as he's gone ahead and named the page "11.2 Milestones"). where we'd keep the screenshots updated for each new milestone released. When we prepare the final screenshot gallery for the November launch, we'd just move this page and update it again for the final release. Any objections/comments? Here's the page as it currently exists - I'm in the process of downloading Milestone 1 as we speak so I can begin trying it out - http://en.opensuse.org/Screenshots/11.2_Milestones -- Kevin "Yeaux" Dupuy openSUSE Member www.twitter.com/KevinDupuy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

Hi Ed, Unfortunately you can't, you will most likely have to wait till the GM release.

If I wanted to make "appliance" versions of this using SUSE Studio, what repositories would I use?

[opensuse-marketing] New ambassador
by Gabriel Stein 28 May '09

28 May '09

Hi I'm Gabriel Stein, from the southern of Brazil and I have been working with SuSe/openSUSE since 1999. I'm a big fan of SuSe because since I tried it, SuSe detected all of my computer hardware including components "for windows". Actually I'm a python developer too, I used to write in my blog some basics of openSUSE and Python, and I participate too of planetsuse.org. Actually I participate of a local group called Tchelinux, which does opensource events to students and universities, without subscribing tax, just 2kg of food to poor inhabitants of the community. I promote openSUSE, interoperability and python. I'm using english as the main language, but I'm thinking to start writing in portuguese too. I can translate things too, like flyers, folders, posters, all marketing stuff. I speak german too. Please let me know of any tasks needed by openSUSE Marketing. -- /\ Gabriel Stein gabrielstein(a)gmail.com +55 51 9953 1337 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] Fwd: Video Opportunities
by Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier 26 May '09

26 May '09

We should definitely start taking advantage of this. The videos done by Andrew might be appropriate, but we might want to also think about recording the openSUSE Day at LinuxTag and also creating new content for this. Best, Zonker ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Brian Proffitt <bproffitt(a)linuxfoundation.org> Date: Tue, May 26, 2009 at 3:12 PM Subject: Video Opportunities To: <snip> Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier <jzb(a)zonker.net> Friends: Linux.com's launch has gone off without major hitches, and we are pleased with the community response so far. I wanted to reach out to all of you and let you know that as we improve Linux.com, one of the upcoming features will be the inclusion of li live or recorded video in the site. If you or members of your community have Ustream or Livestream shows going (or plans along those lines), let me know... we'd love to offer Linux.com to you as a channel for your live or recorded events.

[opensuse-marketing] OpenSuse Conf 2009
by Strainu 26 May '09

26 May '09

Hi guys, I'm Andrei Cipu, the Romanian translation coordinator. I was thinking about coming to the conference, but I don't want to present anything. I had some questions though: 1. Are the dates 100% certain? Can I book my flight already? 2. When will we "simple mortals"(recte viewers) be able to register for the conference? 3. Are there any recommended hotels or should I be looking on Google?

[opensuse-marketing] LugRadio Live UK 2009
by Andrew Wafaa 26 May '09

26 May '09

Aloha, I'm a wee bit late in asking this, but is anyone intending on going to LRL this year? The dats are 24-25 October, and I'm pencilling myself in (I need to sweet talk the wife first so any spare jewelery or chocolates appreciated!). Should I attend what would people like to be present? Hopefully Roger can attend again as he has done a sterling job in the past. Attendence should be approximately 300+ so it isn't small but not huge, and it is fun even with the high concentration of Ubunteros present.
