Below are the items that we covered on openSUSE Marketing Collaboration Days -- Marketing Materials. We would like to thank all that came to help. It was a very successful day. A lot items were covered, added and expanded on for Marketing openSUSE.

But we aren't done, below are the items that we were trying to cover. The first list are items that people have taken on as a task. We thank those for giving their time to help.

There a lot of items still open, please feel free to take on a task if you feel that you can help out.

Again, we love to thank everyone that helped us out. Without your help it won't not be a success.
