[opensuse-marketing] Network issue and promoDVDs
by Stathis Iosifidis (aka diamond_gr) 29 Mar '13

29 Mar '13

Hello, I installed openSUSE from DVD and livedvd and I faced the network issue. Do you think that there should be printed on the promodvd cover the solution? Or a sticker on it with the solution? If someone likes it and install it, he/she won't have Internet and he/she won't have a clue how to solve the problem.

[opensuse-marketing] LinuxTag - Call for Volenteers
by Richard Brown 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

Hi all, Thanks to the response of my urgent call for volunteers, we've been able to go ahead and arrange a booth for LinuxTag, which this year is happening May 22-25. We could still do with more volunteers to help with the booth. Anyone who volunteers to commit a significant amount of their time helping at our booth is eligible for a FREE pass to the conference (a saving of €50 for a 4 day ticket) I have to be the one to book the Exhibitor pass for you, so please *email me* if you're able to attend and in need of an Exhibitor pass. I intend to book the first round of tickets for volunteers on Friday 12th April - if you do not volunteer by this date, I cant be sure if I'll be able to arrange an Exhibitors pass. Once you've let me know you're volunteering please update the wiki page here https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:LinuxTag This page is where we're keeping all the event information together so everyone can be sure what's going on. For those community members who might need additional financial support in order to attend, I suggest you consider applying to the Travel Support Programme: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Travel_Support_Program Please make sure you get an answer from the team before booking any travel or hotel, but don't delay in letting me know you're willing to help :) Many thanks, and here's hoping for a typically great openSUSE presence at LinuxTag in just under 2 months! :) - Richard -- 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 workshop in Mauritius
by Nitin K Sookun 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

Hello folks, I usually organize openSUSE events at the Universities or cybercafés in Mauritius. Recently I noticed a growing interest in Linux around the place where I live. I know this was surely after critics on the Government spending MUR 50M on a website revamp based on Microsoft Sharepoint. We could then see so many Mauritians screaming ‘why not open source’ on the social networks. At the same time many more Mauritians asking ‘what is open source?’. Then last week I wrote to the President of Providence Village Council (the village where I live) asking if I can organize an openSUSE Workshop on their premises. The response was awesome. The president phoned me and said he’ll be very happy with the event and would encourage many people to attend it and learn about Linux :) See the letter I sent : http://hacklog.in/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/openSUSE-workshop-letter.pdf So, I started with requesting some Promo DVDs. I contacted friends to print posters and get some cloth banners. I’m still working on graphics & flyers that we can use to promote the workshop through social networks. We haven’t decided on the event’s date yet. Once everything is decided and organized I’ll post on openSUSE event’s wiki page. For now I’m so happy with the response that I wanted to share with you all.

[opensuse-marketing] compliments for our promo!
by Jos Poortvliet 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Heya all, Bruce Byfield, a journalist at Linux Pro Magazine, has written a blog post about how he appreciated our marketing work! He mentions how cool the feature list is, talking about every feature we have (thanks, Izabel, Kostas) and how helpful the screenshots were (yay! Nice one, zoumpis, Richard). Of course, my rambling was a bit too much but that leaves room for improvement ;-) He didn't see how we had awesome promo stuff ready before the release thanks to our artists - Marcel, Victor, Carlos, Bruno and everyone who helped on- line - you guys did great! Thank all of you for your hard work: this release was awesome. Especially thanks to the team who came to the marketing&artwork hackathon: without you, this would absolutely not have been possible. And yes, that includes those who joined remotely (andiiii!) and the guys from the openSUSE team ;-) Lots of hugs, Jos Get your compliments here: http://www.linuxpromagazine.com/content/view/full/58352 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner(a)opensuse.org
