Hi, There have been multiple mails of the nature included below, by several people, in the past couple of days. I initially considered them errors in list subscribe attempts, until I received one from my own ID. Mine for example, got generated with absolutely no action from my side. Is this a ML error issue, or am I missing something? Sorry for top posting, but this is not even a reply to a thread, so I didn't know where to put it. I have attached a copy of the actual mail I received for your use. Anyone know what this is? ~kknundy On 16 March 2011 12:15, <kknundy(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org > For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help(a)opensuse.org >

[opensuse-marketing] Codenames of animals
by Kim Leyendecker 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

Dear all! Apart these version number threads, this thread give another point: In 11.3 the codename was "Teal" in 11.2 "Emerald". Maybe we can change the codename to the names of animals, who are threatened with extinction. As an example: openSUSE 12.0 "Narwhal" (Okay, a little bit Ubuntu copy in this case, but I simply don´t know such an animal, and I´m too lazy to search ;) ) What do you think? It´s independant from the version number discussion and we can maybe tell the world. to pay more attention to these animals. Remember: openSUSE is more then "just" an operating system thanks -- Kim Leyendecker (kimleyendecker(a)hotmail.de) openSUSE Ambassador http://www.opensuse.org powered by openSUSE 11.4 | KDE 4.6 | x86_64 Notebook | usecase: Workstation openSUSE/Slashdot Profilname: openLHAG (OpenLHAG) Have you tried SUSE Studio?

Dear friends. You might have noticed that I haven't answered lots of mails. I currently have an inbox of around 2000 and are stuggeling to keep it there. The openSUSE marketing ML has 635 unread mails alone... I hereby give up trying to keep up. I will have a look at the ML but I won't always be able to follow all of it. Sorry! I know, not a biggy, most of you contact me privately if you have something - keep doing that ;-) Love, Jos

[opensuse-marketing] "Learning Linux Through openSUSE" workshop
by Drew Adams 24 Mar '11

24 Mar '11

Hi Everyone, This is my first post to this mailing list! I want to share with everyone that I have set up a "Learning Linux Through openSUSE" workshop in Riverside, CA on April 9th at 5pm at the Blood-Orange Infoshop. If all goes well it should be a regular thing that I will be co-instructing with a friend of mine (who is also a fellow openSUSE user). This will be the first "formal" event like this that I have taught. Is there any advice or wisdom that can be shared with me so that it can be as successful as possible? I am very excited to be doing this and am looking forward to helping others get to know openSUSE.

Hi Ambassadors, last week there was the Chemnitzer Linux Tage. Of course, with a openSUSE Booth. Lots of openSUSE people was there at the openSUSE booth. Two from the openSUSE Booster arrived from Nürnberg with fresh openSUSE 11.4 DVDs. We have distribute over 300 DVDs to interested people. On the two days was a lot of talks about openSUSE or openSUSE Projects. gnokii made a very good talk about openSUSE 11.4 and shows how easy openSUSE is to install. Michal Hrusecky shows interessted people the openSUSE Build Service in a workshop. The hall was full, so many people must stand in the last line. I made a lot of pictures. You find the pictures here: https://picasaweb.google.com/liquidsky42/ChemnitzerLinuxTage2011# I wrote a Blog Article (german): http://ununseptium.wordpress.com/2011/03/22/so-waren-die-chemnitzer-linux- tage-2011/ Greetings Jan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] RFC: Edit text for requesting Promo DVDs
by Bryen M Yunashko 22 Mar '11

22 Mar '11

Folks, AJ has requested the team to review text for requesting Promo DVDs for 11.4. I have created a copy at http://ietherpad.com/ynMuvM4rRw Please take a few minutes to look at and sharpen the text so we can spread the word quickly to distribute 11.4 Promo DVDs at events. We are setting a deadline for text review of this Friday, 18-March-2011. While it is important that we polish up the language with good English, it is also important that non-native English speakers understand this text because we want this spread out GLOBALLY! So even if you are a non-native English speaker, we want your feedback. If something isn't clear to you, let us know! And to answer your anticipated question about when will the 11.4's be ready? We hope to see them ready to ship by end of the month. Keep your fingers crossed. Thanks!
