[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE Release 12.3
Hi All openSUSE 12.3 release is round the corner. I can help out by writing one article a week, provided I get a feature list. openSUSE is fast aproaching beta phase, so that would be great if we have a list. I remember coolo had a script that would list all the packages that were upgraded, if I can get a link where the script is uploaded that will be great. -- Regards Manu Gupta -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner@opensuse.org

Indeed! The 12.3 portal¹ looks pretty basic atm. Who takes care of installing a skeleton portal, stub feature list, screenshots page etc for 12.3? Then we can point people at that asking to provide content.

I doubt that list would be too useful. It's just going to be very long I guess. For the last release where everything was rushed we started by collecting potential interesting entries in the changelogs of packages that are listed on distrowatch². We also specifically asked maintainers of some important components and packages for changes they might find noteworthy. E.g the major desktops, browsers, libreoffice, systemd, samba, wine, gcc ... cu Ludwig [1] https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:12.3 [2] http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=suse -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner@opensuse.org

This time it will be me. https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:12.3 ready to fill the blanks. I would recommend to use portal for synopsis and more detailed list keep on separate page; just as it is done with previous releases: https://en.opensuse.org/Features Draft article for features in 12.3 is here: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Upcoming_features As 13.1 and 13.2 are in the https://en.opensuse.org/Roadmap it is possible to add empty portals with times when development starts and when is planned release. This will give agile people place to work. If no one has objections, this will be implemented next weekend. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks for taking care about that. What about linking the upcoming features page in the portal as long as 12.3 is still in development, so it's easier to find? cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner@opensuse.org
