Great timing! I am hoping to put together a release party here in Portland for November 12, 2009 / 11.2. I was looking more for guidelines than a checklist, so here are some questions:
1. What's the exact release time? And in what time zone? We here in Portland will I think be off Daylight Saving Time by then.
Coolo might be able to answer this question. Though, I think it will be some time-lag to go through the whole mirrors, so that it may be difficult to define the exact release time. ;-)
2. I would like to have live music and beer / pizza or some similar geeky foodstuffs. I know quite a few musicians here in town that would love to get into Linux (assuming the technologies in 11.2 are up to the task, of course) and I think we could put together something that would appeal to a wider class of geek. Is there any reason I couldn't have a combined openSUSE release party and jam session?
Cool ! This sounds very attractive for me. I do think there is no reason to restrict such kind of parties. Without doubt, the launch party should be the opportunity to *have a lot of fun* ! ;-) And also, it would be a good chance to introduce openSUSE to those who haven't been familiar with Linux and openSUSE.
