Thanks for starting that page. I'll add more info as soon as I can. One quick question though: Novell has been a gold sponsor ( http://www.linuxfestnorthwest.org/sponsorship ) of the event for years. Should the event coordinators be seeking to continue that, or do you think it would be more appropriate for openSUSE to sponsor?
I'd much rather use my budget to pay for ambassador travel & hotel, marketing materials and if a booth costs money I love to pay for that to. And organizing openSUSE hackfests & sprints to get work done. A banner at a conference is not worth much to me, however. In other words, I won't sponsor unless someone has a very good reason to do so which doesn't involve just having our name on some website or a banner. And can justify it over using the money for openSUSE.

James, did you get a reply to this query?
AFAIK 11.4 is on schedule for March release so you should be able to access media by mid April for sure. (though I haven't closely followed schedule so may be wrong).
In the meantime you can access the current build here for DIY media:
James,
If you could send us your address and how many DVD's you'd like to have,
I
will ask Jacqueline to ensure you will get the new 11.4 DVD's as soon as they are available.
I take it you would like to attend LinuxFest Northwest, I've seen a mail from Jonathan Nadeau asking if openSUSE wants to be there - maybe you can reply to him. Moreover, if you could create a page for linuxfest
northwest
on http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Ambassadors_events#2011 that would be awesome. You could copy one of the other pages (for example http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:LinuxTag2011 ) as a template for the linuxfest northwest page. Then ask if anyone else is willing/able to go
on
this and the opensuse-ambassadors mailinglist ;-)
I have set up an linuxfest northwest page. Anyone who wants to go, please
add
your details!
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:LinuxFestNorthwest2011
I guess James will be the first ;-)
Cheers, Jos
cheers

LinuxFest Northwest, Northwest USA's 'grass roots' Linux event, is scheduled for April 30 & May 1st, 2011. Is it anticipated that 11.4 media will be available by then?
If not, will it be possible to get ISOs for the disc, to reproduce locally? The combined Live Gnome / Live KDE / Installer disc is a *huge* draw.
