Hi all!
The openSUSE conference is not so far away now. It is really time to start talking about it. So, who's up for writing an article about why people should go there? If you've been to earlier conferences, you know what is good and cool about it. If you haven't been there but want to, I'm sure you also have ideas about it ;-)
Of course you don't have to write alone: I've set up an Etherpad. No surprise there ;-)
I've made a start here: http://piratepad.net/wJ2WiNfp7X
Amazing work all of you! Currently the list of credits is: Bruno Friedmann Chuck Payne Fransisco Arias Gnokii Helen South Javier Llorente Especially Helen South deserves some recognition, she did a lot of work and I appreciate that greatly! I have re-arranged a few things, and think this is (almost) ready to be put on news.opensuse.org. If you feel like adding some things - go ahead on http://piratepad.net/wJ2WiNfp7X Soon the conference program will be ready, and that will of course also trigger a news article. So this is a good start for the stream of news we should be churning out for openSUSE conference! Anyone has other ideas or is willing to do something to get openSUSE conference to be in the news? Once the conference program is out - it'd be good if we could write a bit about the talks and workshops users can expect at the conference. It's not difficult work - take the description available, seek around to add some info and/or contact the author to tell a bit more about what he/she is to talk about and - dang, a new article. You can count on me and a few others here to review such an article so it doesn't have to be perfect. Germanglish, Spanglish, Itaenglish or other variations of english are no problemo for us :D Any takers for that? Cheers, Jos
