[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE: A difficult Distribution or a user-friendly distribution?
by Kostas Koudaras 26 Nov '10

26 Nov '10

A few days ago a Greek popular site/blog FOSS related asked me to write an article about openSUSE, I came up with that article in order to show people that everybody can use openSUSE. The article had good response at the Greek audience (over 1200 views on 48 hours) and that is why I decided(Rajko M. helped in that decision) to translate it in English. Give it a look and let me know your opinion about it,also I am preparing the second part so any ideas you have would be great. The link to the article in English: http://e-tote-kala.blogspot.com/2010/11/opensuse-difficult-distribution-or-… Kostas 'Warlordfff' Koudaras -- http://opensuse.gr http://amb.opensuse.gr http://warlordfff.tk me I am not me ------- Time travel is possible, you just need to know the right aliens I gave exams for God , but I failed in miracles -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] Attachmate and openSUSE / open source community.
by Jimmy Pierre 26 Nov '10

26 Nov '10

Greetings, I am a bit busy because we are having our Software Freedom Day next Saturday. Questions to be asked: 1. How do the other distros get funded? 2. Use of openSUSE/SUSE on websites, documents etc. Trademarks, rights to use images, logos etc. 3. Support from local Attachmate people? 4. Does Attachmate have a community Manager? I could not find one, so I phoned Seattle yesterday evening. I was handed to Liz an outsourced PR company. 5. What do we tell our members? Does that involve a change of Memorandum and Articles of Association, hence bank account, letterheads, business cards, websites et al? 6. open office is heavily funded by Novell, does that mean that we might less developers? Other developments in progress? 7. Helen is right, what about our pals at Novell? Best wishes, Jimmy President nui.fr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] My post and the Christmas dinner...
by Nelson Marques 25 Nov '10

25 Nov '10

Hi all, I would like to apologize for the 'bald' image I used on a previous post that showed up on the planet. I've deleted the contents of the post and asked my feeds to be removed. There is no special reason for that pic, except for the combat boots I loved, the seasonal looks and the 'Merry Christmas'. It returned on a 'Feliz Natal' (Merry Christmas) query on google, and I liked it. There is a handful of people that is meeting in Aveiro, which is somehow at fair distance from everyone. Though this is a social event for us, we expect to try and look into the future of a possible 'openSUSE' community in Portugal. The environment between us is very informal and we're all good people. So this might actually work. The post was meant to be informative with a seasonal image... it wasn't the best choice. My apologies to everyone. nelson.

[opensuse-marketing] Christmas Postcards
by Nelson Marques 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

Dear all, Before I start, an apologize to everyone because this email is a bit 'cultural' oriented. As most know, Christmas is arriving, and it plays a very positive role in western civilizations, specially on Christian countries, like Portugal. The expression used in Portuguese is the following: "Feliz Natal e um Próspero Ano Novo" // translates into: Merry Christmas and a prosperous new year (we kinda need it as the country sinks); Can we have an openSUSE official Christmas Postcard (Notice the text in Portuguese above)? This could be awesome, either to send to our sponsors or for personal use (to be distributed as digital media) and so on. Gnokii and your people... er.. team... provide those? Thanks in advance, Nelson Marques PS: Make it available on marketing materials on wiki please, and everyone, don't be shy in using it! -- nelson marques nmo.marques(a)gmail.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/lights/dde2/?cpg=146H&image - I think openSUSE fans should buy quantities of this. It could be useful for ambassadors spreading the word for openSUSE. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org
