by Olaf Runge 13 Jun '12

13 Jun '12

Hi, ich weiß nicht, ob ich mit der von mir ausgewählten Mailadresse richtig liege. in meinem letzten Urlaub auf Madagaskar hatte ich Gelegenheit, einige schöne Fotos von Chamäleons dem Logo von openSuSe anzufertigen. als langjähriger Nutzer und Fan der Linux-Distribution openSuSe wollte ich versuchen etwas zum Gelingen des Projektes beitragen und diese Bilder zur Verfügung stellen. Teilt mir einfach mit, ob Interesse besteht, und wie ich diese dann Euch zukommen lassen kann. Ein sehr gelungens Foto füge ich dieser Mail als Anhang bei. Es grüsst Olaf Runge Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Str. 7 53225 Bonn

[opensuse-marketing] How about we #AskGeeko on Google+
by Roger Luedecke 31 May '12

31 May '12

I just saw a thing on Google+ where Conan would answer questions. I think we should do something similar, #AskGeeko. Granted, this would be different... no webcam hangout, but would allow people to ask questions, serious and silly from the project. I'll try to answer as the page where possible, and other folks could answer as well. If we are lucky, we may be able to get #AskGeeko to trend. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] inappropriate use of (open)SUSE logo in Mexico
by Miguel Barajas 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hi there, So, there is a Mexican Company (textil) that is using the openSUSE Logo, they has been registered the logo to the mexican intelectual property institute as their trade mark. Here there is the webpage: http://chamy.mx/index.html and the Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/ChamybyDesign I'm wondering if SUSE de Mexico (where I use to work) has any issue about it. Anyway, I don't think that this kind of ripoff has to be allowed.

[opensuse-marketing] Need design help
by Jos Poortvliet 20 May '12

20 May '12

Heya all, I'll be printing a number of nice, glossy brochures for artists using openSUSE. If this works out we can improve on it and do something more with the concept of having non-openSUSE projects endorsing us at our booths. But for now, I have added 2 openSUSE pages to the last pages of the whole document (below a cut-down version of the document). I have text, images - and even a quote from the Krita maintainer suggesting artists that openSUSE is the best out there :D What is less good is that my design skills - or lack there-of - are very visible. last two pages will be the inside- and outside of the last page of the brochure (it's a 24 page small book, a4 size). I need somebody to make them look pretty. They can be redesigned any way anyone of you see fit... Anyone willing to make this look a bit better? Again, JUST care about the *last two pages*. it would even be fine to send me a PDF or even image with just the last 2 pages as output back - I can then do the change myself on the original document (which is 50 MB, hence this smaller one). http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29347181/about-krita-oS.odt It would be nice to have it sometime this week... :D Thanks, Jos -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE Collaboration Summer Camp in Greece
by Kostas Koudaras 18 May '12

18 May '12

Summer in Greece! Is the weather too hot for you to code or contribute to your favorite FOSS project? It is time to get together one more time in this year's openSUSE Collaboration Summer Camp !!! So, ok, I’ll be there! And then what? We will be together next to the sea to watch various workshops (do not forget to bring your laptop!) And we will work on our favorite projects! When? The weekend 20-22 of July 2012, at the heart of Summer. Where? In central Greece at Grand Platon Hotel ( www.grandplaton-hotel.gr ) at Olympiaki akti (at the beach of the city of Katerini). Who? The Greek openSUSE community organizes the second openSUSE Collaboration Summer Camp and will take care for smooth flow of the program, location and details of the event. Aimed at everyone involved in the FOSS which can both participate and make their own workshop! Why all that? Because we love what we do, we are having fun contributing to FOSS and we hate doing it alone in our rooms during Summer time. Besides coding, translating and all other ‘boring stuff’ there will also be plenty of sun and beach, a large swimming pool and plenty of beers - all paid by you since we only sponsor the sun, the fun and all the other free stuff...Those who want to participate, please contact us so we can better organize the availability of the rooms! We are looking forward to seeing you all! For more information & registration form: -- Send us an e-mail at : summercamp(a)os-el.gr -- Get into our IRC Channel #openSUSE-el in Freenode Kostas 'Warlordfff' Koudaras -- --- \m/ --- http://opensuse.gr http://os-el.gr http://amb.opensuse.gr http://www.kde.gr http://warlordfff.tk --- \m/ --- me I am not I --- \m/ --- Time travel is possible, you just need to know the right aliens -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-marketing] IPv6 day: openSUSE is participating again
by Lars Vogdt 18 May '12

18 May '12

Hi Marketing Team! I know that 6 June 2012 is a long, long day in the future, but nevertheless, the preparation is going on and as we are already supporting IPv6 since a year now, I guess spending some marketing efforts in this area will give us an easy win. I already added openSUSE and openSUSE-Education as IPv6 participants on the list of the Internet Society ( www.worldipv6launch.org/participants/ ) and now I also prepared some Newsletter for our users here: http://news.opensuse.org/?p=13372&preview=true If someone finds the time to go through my ugly English there and maybe enhance the text with some additional information, I would really appreciate this. I want to give the time for the release on news.opensuse.org in your hands - just find a suitable date and click on the button, Admins. Thanks in advance, Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner(a)opensuse.org

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, ich würde gerne das openSUSE-Projekt finanziell mit einer kleinen Spende unterstützen. Leider konnte ich auf der Website de.openSUSE.org keinen Hinweis auf ein Spendenkonto entdecken. Vielleicht können Sie mir bitte bei Gelegenheit eine entsprechende Bankverbindung mitteilen (und diese im eigenen Interesse auf Ihrer Website anzeigen). Vielen Dank!

[opensuse-marketing] Spreaing news about outage
by Bryen M Yunashko 01 May '12

01 May '12

I'm on the road right now so a little difficult to stay on top of things. I have posted news about the current outage on GooglePlus, Twitter and Facebook's many pages, including our openSUSE Group, openSUSE Page, OBS and YaST pages. This past weekend many of us put openSUSE into the hands of new users via FLiSOL and LFNW and any other events. Let's try to reach out to those we know who are using openSUSE for the first time and hold their hands so they don't think their first experience with openSUSE is a permanent example of our usual quality of service. I used the following statemetn as post: We apologize for the outages you may be currently experiencing and will update as soon as everything is in good working condidtion. http://news.opensuse.org/2012/05/01/download-opensuse-org-celebrates-may-1-… If someone can follow through on the various FB pages, as I might not be around to do so, that would be helpful. It will be difficult for me to be able to keep track of the status of progress for the next 48 hours. Many thanks!
