[opensuse-marketing] School DVD's
I am a student at State College of Florida and an openSuse advocate. Would it be possible to get 30 @ 11.4 DVD's for my computer science teacher to distribute to his classes? Any stickers, pens or other swag would be appreciated and dispersed as well.

Joe, there's a request form here: http://software.opensuse.org/promodvd which will go directly to the right person. Great to hear that you're promoting openSUSE. Do come and join in the discussions on the the list, maybe you have some ideas about sharing openSUSE with students? cheers, Helen -- IRC: helen_au helen.south@opensuse.org helensouth.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

It will indeed - but the logistics for sending out DVDs worldwide incl. the overhead of customs, is so great that we concentrate on larger events and orders and cannot fullfill smaller requests. 30 DVDs is just too few for us to handle at the moment.

Is that something we could sent out of Provo instead and avoid some of that overhead? Stephen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

Righto. I assumed that ANY request should be sent that way and would be approved or rejected through that mechanism. Given the helpful responses from the list, it would seem to make sense to send smaller DVD requests directly to the Ambassador lists for local ambassadors to assist? cheers Helen -- IRC: helen_au helen.south@opensuse.org helensouth.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

We're sending out of Provo already ;) Still it's overhead to handle each and every request. Btw. packaging size for DVDs is 100 DVDs, so that's why we use that number.

AJ, In the future, if you get such a small number why not reach out the a local Ambassador and ask them to send DVD. I would have been happy too, put this gives the ambassador a chance to reach out the the person requesting to help answer any questions they might have and help promote openSUSE, really showing them that "Your are not alone". Plus, maybe the ambassador can set up something with that person, giving them slides, posters, hands out. I still have a lot of Zypper Cheat Sheets and One Page Linux Manual that I was planning to send with them to this school. But again, this is a thought.

Yes, this is a good thought and I'll do that.
