[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE Survey 2010 - Participate now
by Michael Loeffler 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

Moin, participate in the openSUSE survey 2010 to give feedback to the openSUSE project about the distribution, the openSUSE tools environment and the project in general. Let us know where things are in good shape and areas where improvement is needed. There are also some questions to get some demographic knowledge about our users. The more we know in which direction our project shall move the better we can address this. The survey will take about 8 mins. The survey will be online till Feb 28, 2010 and we raffle amongst all participants some t-shirts, openSUSE 11.2 boxes and 1 one really neat device (most probably a Chumby). If you wanna participate in the raffle please provide your email address at the end, if not just skip it. Have a lot of fun! & Thanks for participating Best Michael -- Michael Löffler, Product Management SUSE LINUX Products GmbH - Nürnberg - AG Nürnberg - HRB 16746 - GF: Markus Rex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] Upcomming OBS 1.7 announcement
by Adrian Schröter 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

Hello Marketing Team, we are about to release OBS 1.7.0 later today and I modified the official press announcement from Novell Marketing a bit for news.opensuse.org (it was focused on commercial ISVs and it should be now more focused on openSUSE). You can see it here, if you login into news.opensuse.org: http://news.opensuse.org/?p=2849&preview=true Any ideas what could be written better ? My feeling is also that our default wiki page for build service could be better http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service Currently it is just a bullet point page mostly, but I lack ideas how to improve it, frankly. Yes, I know, I could have come earlier to you. But anyway, if you could do any improvements, it would be great :) thanks adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian(a)suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] FLISOL 2010
by S.Kemter 08 Feb '10

08 Feb '10

Hello friends, It is time for beginn with the plannings for the world greatest Linux event - the flisol Last year there was only 3 events who openSUSE participated or we know that openSUSE people participated in. There was an event in Nicuragua http://lizards.opensuse.org/2009/04/27/opensuse-nicaragua-flisol-2009/ And one did Ricardo Varas Santana but we had no report from there. http://en.opensuse.org/Marketing_Team/Events/FLISOL_09 Let us make that this year better. Ricardo Varas Santana did a long time ago a little analysis how much Ambassadors openSUSE in LATAM has http://lizards.opensuse.org/2009/10/02/opensuse-ambassadors-numbers/ There are a lot of them there and there could be come more out as 2 events/participation in flisol So Ambassadors from LATAM step forward and participate in the flisol. Search for the events near u and help the people there and represent the openSUSE project there or when there is no event try to make one. There is a page in the wiki, like last year. Hope to see more participation there as last year http://en.opensuse.org/Marketing_Team/Events/FLISOL_10 I think here are enough people they have experience in to organize events and u can get help here. If u need some artwork the new Art-Team burns to help with that. br gnokii -- more http://karl-tux-stadt.de/ktuxs http://www.xing.com/go/invita/11208336 http://twitter.com/karltuxstadt http://identi.ca/karltuxstadt -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-marketing] Proposals for financing from the openSUSE marketing budget in 2010
by S.Kemter 08 Feb '10

08 Feb '10

Hello friends, A long time ago asked zonker for a collection with the events for the next year. So that he can plan the budget. I begun to edit this site http://en.opensuse.org/Ambassador/Events#Events_for_Ambassadors First I killed the table with "Need Ambassadors". Think everyone can see when the field "Ambassador" is empty that there is noone that support this event. For better visibility I marked the empty events red. I added two new fields: Page in the Wiki - that are the pages for planning the event ;) and Presentation. Please fill in - visiting a event is not really present openSUSE there ;) I moved the table 2010 over 2009, think the year is nearly over ;) Now I filled the table with the events in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. There are lot more of events! The Linuxwochen in Austria have 3 or 4 events more but I dont know the exactly date for them at this time. There are not all events filled in, there are more events in North and South America and Asia. So please fill in them. We should use this page more, I dont know this week is foss.in in India is there aopenSUSE Ambassador? br gnokii -- more http://karl-tux-stadt.de/ktuxs http://www.xing.com/go/invita/11208336 http://twitter.com/karltuxstadt http://identi.ca/karltuxstadt -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org
