Hi all,
April 16-17 in Antwerp, Belgium, the Linux Open Administration Days will
take place. This free event offers a chance for LPI certification as
well as meeting and talking to linux sysadmins. There is a call for
presentations here: http://www.loadays.org/content/call-presentations
If you want to go and give a talk there about openSUSE tech - that's be
awesome. If you can't afford to go there due to travel or hotel costs,
let me know, we might be able to work something out ;-)
cheers,
Jos
Hi,
Back in the days of 10.2 (if I'm not mistaken), there was a Press DVD,
that could either be run as a liveDVD or installed as the regular DVD.
Is there something like this planned for 12.1? If so, where can we get
it from?
Thanks,
Strainu

Heya all,
According to our launch checklist on:
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Launch_Checklist
We need to get a call for release parties out next week! Anyone up for
writing one? Creative things like pizza recipes very welcome :D
Also, we need sneek preview articles... Stuff about what's new and
coming in openSUSE 12.1. Anyone any suggestions and/or willing to work
on something? See our Product Highlights* for ideas!

Heya all,
I did a google search for our facebook pages. Google said that these are
the ones we currently have:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/openSUSE/45393742283;
product/service with 2600 likes
http://www.facebook.com/pages/openSUSE/107715102589260;
Interest with 5200 likes
http://www.facebook.com/OpenSUSECentral;
community page with 5280 likes
http://www.facebook.com/groups/opensuseproject/;
group page with 5900 members
I do not know who owns the first one, but I think it should go. I see
Bryen making frequent posts, maybe he can make that happen? We should
then try and let people know that the other pages are the ones they
should go to.
In that regard, the second one, despite the 5200 likes, should imho go
too. Again I do not know who 'owns' it but I see Stuart making frequent
posts, could you do this, Stuart? Then we need to get you and byren
added to the ones left: the community page and the facebook group.
These two are the most active so I think it makes most sense to focus on
them. And obviously I'd rather see the OpenSUSECentral stay as it has a
much prettier URL. I will try to get OpenSUSECentral renamed to
openSUSE. There is an individual with that name, let's see if we can get
it. If not, let's at least try to rename OpenSUSECentral to
openSUSECentral.
Gertjan is one of the masters of the OpenSUSECentral page. Gertjan,
could you give me and SatManUK (stuart tanner,
http://www.facebook.com/georgianpropertiesuk) access too? Stuart offered
to be our social media master for the openSUSE 12.1 release so he has
things to post to the page and I just like to be in control :D
Comments, suggestions? Please, if you know who can change anything on
the first two pages, let me know! If we can't remove them we can at
least put a notice and a link there to our 'big' pages...
Cheers,
Jos

Kim,
Heres some statistics, ripped from www.suse.com
In a recent survey conducted by the Information Technology Intelligence
Corporation, respondents reported SUSE Linux Enterprise Server exhibited
on average 17.4 minutes of unplanned downtime per server per year.
Compare this with 35.4 minutes for Oracle Solaris, 67.2 minutes for Red
Hat Enterprise Linux and 145.2 minutes for Windows Server 2008.
The same study found that the average time to patch a server (planned
downtime) with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server was 15 minutes, versus 31
minutes for Solaris, 27 minutes for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and 32
minutes for Windows Server 2008. By minimizing both planned and
unplanned downtime with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, your business
gains more access to the applications, systems and data it depends on to
generate revenues and stay competitive.
Hope this helps
Richard

Such numbers are not available and, even then, how would those
be collected in the first place ?
* what's a crash? an application? the kernel?
* using a beta or a stable? a package from the distro or an
addon repo?
And.. you will *never* get such numbers for Windows or Microsoft
applications, that's for sure :)
Actually, no one wants to collect and publish such numbers in
the first place.
cheers

Hey friends,
While talking to a friend, we also talked about MSN / Windows Live on
Linux. I told him about aMSN and that I like it more then Windows Live
for Windows, because it´s more stable.
So, the thought of a crash statistic (which OS crashes more?) about
Linux vs. Windows came to my mind.
Does we (or others) have such a statistic? I would love comparing both
OS´s in different areas, foremost stability.
what do you think?
