Sure. I think its better to have another template to Ambassadors, because we aren't Novell or openSUSE employees. We can work in 2 templates, 1 for openSUSE members(e,g Zonker) and another to Ambassadors. I don't know if Zonker will prefer use the Novell template, but... But we can use some simple logo, like twitter logo in bottom of template and use black or white background. Its just my 2 cents, I think which we have more ideas and suggestions!

¿Is there any OO impress template? As Ambassadors, in my opinion, we all must have the same template to make our talks.

Yes. Please check: http://en.opensuse.org/Marketing/Presentation. The *.ods File called openSUSE Template.

As I pointed out in another post before Community Week[1], I don't think this template is assumed to be used by Non-Novell community contributers.

The reasons why I don't think so, are:

- There are some Novell logos in this template and especially, there's a  credit in page 2 that says '$DATE Novell Inc.' I think this leads to  misunderstanding that the document is officially written by Novell  person.

- As you can see in page 6 (last page), there's a 'General Disclaimer'  that says:

   [snip]    Further, Novell,Inc, reserves the right to revise this document and    to make change to its content, at any time, without obligation to    notify any person or entity of such revisions or changes.    [snip]

 If I understand correctly, this means, even if the document is written  by Non-Novell community contributers, Novell has the right to modify  the document without notification.  And, this 'General Disclaimer' can  not be edited by authers. :-(

If we are allowed to have one and if the coordinators  agree with me, I can make a proposal of it.

...

You're welcome...

I think we had better have another template that can be used by whole community members. So, Luis, I would also welcome if you make a proposal.

Best,

Hey guy! Novell isn't the problem. The problem is: use a template for Novell employees, but we aren't employees. I just don't want confusion about us and Novell. I really want to work at Novell, because I really like openSUSE, but I'm a volunteer, an Ambassador which works to promote openSUSE. I think which Zonker or another Novell employees can help us with this question. We can/can't use? All the Best. 2009/6/23 Ricardo Varas Santana :

Well I am a local ambassador and yet an openSUSE member (not employed by Novell) and I don't care that much for having Novell to do whatever they want with my presentation as long as my name is on it ;), and still at this point in time openSUSE is strongly (think) sponsored by Novell so I find it kind of fair to have a Novell logo somewhere in the presentation's template. Of course I know openSUSE!=SUSE.

The template that's up right now is probably only suitable for Novell employess (*or reallybig fans of Novell, I guess...) . You can remove the last slides that have the disclaimers, if you want. But a new template would be a good idea. Note that I'm in favor of having a template that any Ambassador can use, as well as some prepared presentations that any ambassador could use too -- but not in favor of saying "Ambassadors *must use this template." -- Some people like to do original presentations that may not work stock templates.

I agree to have a separate template. I am a government employee who do volunteer my time to do talks on OpenSUSE to local community colleges. While I do that on my spare time, the Novell logo might prove to be a potential conflict of interest. Eric On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 4:32 PM, Joe 'Zonker' Brockmeier wrote:
