[opensuse-marketing] Anyone else planning on attending LinuxCon No America 2012 in San Diego?
by Tony Su 06 Aug '12

06 Aug '12

To date, only 3 of us have committed, anyone else interested in visiting sunny San Diego? https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon/ This looks like an exceptional opportunity to see "everything Linux" -- Much bigger than other Linux conventions, I expect that this one would be more worthwhile than the average convention. Special pre-conference seminars are also offered on Tuesday include oVirt, Gluster. and workshops on SPDX. As I offered before, if you're coming but need help getting lodging and/or transportation, I'd be happy to help figure things out.

I could do so, if nobody else is interested.

Is anybody interested to look into this? Andreas ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: PCPro Linux blog Date: Saturday, August 04, 2012, 08:48:49 From: Cam Bamber <cambamber(a)yahoo.co.uk> To: press(a)opensuse.org <press(a)opensuse.org> Hi, One of the UK's biggest PC magazines, PCPro (www.pcpro.co.uk), is putting on a comparative Linux distro review in an upcoming issue. But because the field is so big, as well as doing their usual performance and usability profiling, they are opening up the process to the public. So they've created a wiki where users/evangelists can describe their favourite and the content will get into the printed magazine - and openSUSE is (of course) one of them. http://www.pcpro.co.uk/blogs/2012/07/26/help-pc-pro-write-its-linux- distro-labs/ PCPro has a huge readership in the UK and is predominantly Windows centric. But because of the rise of Ubuntu and Raspberry Pi, the horror of Windows 8, and the cost of non-free software affecting businesses at these challenging times - there is renewed interest in Linux for home and businesses. I was going to contribute myself, but I'm no writer and I'm just not going to do openSUSE justice - so you should get your marketing people onto this immediately! Good luck!
