I don't think it's *very different - is there something missing we should add? Thanks for answering. The old rules was:
Who can be a spokesperson
* everybody who signed the guiding principles and is an openSUSE member
That is not in the new rules.
What are the tasks of a spokesperson?
In general these community members should spread the word about openSUSE
in their area, like:
* promote openSUSE
No Problem
* dispatch openSUSE DVDs/CDs
No Problem then I need an Package witth them...
* contact to local LUGs
No Problem
* attend events (tradeshows, university, community etc.), give
presentations
No Problem, than I need business Cards. So i can be an "official"
Contactperson.
* help updating the event calendar on news.o.o
Then i need an Access for news.o.o
* contact for local community (in person, chat, mailinglists etc.) and
get feedback to the project
No Problem
* mentor other interested people
No Problem
* write reports from events, meetings etc on news or lizards.o.o
Access
Novell:
* welcome box (t-shirts, caps, Promo DVDs), to be resend with each new
release
* special business cards (template or real)
Needed
* special t-shirt
It would be nice
* a special guide/howto to make it easier and better organized
strongly needed
* event box (portable booth, signage, banner, flyer, poster etc.)
Needed
* certain budget for travel
Strongly needed.
* create a spokesperson day parallel or a day prior to the openSUSE
conference
Good
* single point of contact to drive the program and manage travel, DVD
shipment, events etc.
I need an Contact from SuSE/Novell Germany. Anyone who i can ask.
* exclusive mailinglist for spokespersons to allign our efforts (albeit
it's public anyway to get feedback)
Not truly needed
