How can I help? I will have some vacation days (about 20+ days) coming so I will have some time to spend.

This was discussed in the ambassador list and I am continuing this over here

The thread is here http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-ambassadors/2010-12/msg00069.html

I agree with both Aj and P Sankar that this proposal requires a lot of human effort, dedication and other logistics. Its indeed a very difficult job.

Some of us might be familiar and some of us might not be with Helping Hands Project in which we used to have irc sessions to teach people about openSUSE. Here experts at their respective domain would help people with their first landing steps.

I will give you an example

Suppose, I use GNOME and want people to know about GNOME I can take an irc session on using Gnome comfortably.

If I am good at OBS, IRC sessions on OBS to help people out.

This project was good and was successful but failed because we did not have a lot of human resources. Certifications and creating training materials would even make a notch more difficult.

I would suggest, lets re initiate Helping Hands. No Certificates, nothing but rather teach them and we achieve our objective let people know about openSUSE.
