[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE counter -1 on release day?
Hi, do I count wrong or the counter? The counter will count down today to 1 and tomorrow to 0. When it will be down to zero the world still needs to wait another day till openSUSE 11.0 release. Assuming I count correctly we should add one day to be down to zero on release day and not one day erlier, shouldn't we?

May be change it to a "Download Now" or something similar. :) -- Johnny Jacob http://johnnyjacob.org

Pascal changed the counter to "show 'T - HH:MM' during the last 24 hours". Bye, Steve -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

| Pascal changed the counter to "show 'T - HH:MM' during the last 24 hours".
- - the time diff is the number of days compared with 19.6. 15:00 CEST
(assuming the counter.o.o vhost is running with TZ=CEST, something I
cannot check myself)
- - once the difference in days will be 0 but the difference in seconds is
|0, it will show "T - HH" instead (I dropped the :MM part, as the images
are generated by a cron job, and it would have been pointless anyway ;))
- - once the difference is <=0, it will show "Out now!"
I'm currently collecting translations of "out now"/"available now" in
various languages, progress is pretty good.
I also decided to go for "T - HH" to avoid having to collect even more
translations + "T - 01 hour" vs "T - 02 hours" + unusual plural rules in
czech and russian, etc...
The only thing I cannot control is
- - svn up on the server
- - cron job scheduling
- - the $TZ on the server (unfortunately, Python's datetime module is
really poor wrt timezone support)
The above are in darix' hands :)
cheers

"out now" : Fuori ora (but sounds really bad,) "available now" : disponibile ora (that sound really good) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
