[opensuse-marketing] <idea> Lists of openSUSE local teams
Hi everyone Some time ago asking about the mailing lists of the opensuse community. The response I got was that the only lists that there are these >> http://lists.opensuse.org/ My proposal is to establish official lists of the project for each country, just as it does ubuntu which has a Local Community for each one of them. https://lists.ubuntu.com/#Ubuntu+Worldwide+LoCo+Teams In this way you can have topics and talks of local communities, closer support and communications of the country. Nicaragua currently have this list suse-ni@opensuse.org.ni but we are experiencing a lot of errors as users went from 100 to 350 more or less and where we hosted the mailman (handler list) is blocking and removing members (today I found that the poor list only has 80 members) You can do the admin for the ambassador of that specific list. We push this idea? I think other countries would love the idea. Thanks Greetings -- Ing.

It's not the same... there are language lists but not for groups. Example In Spain are making a local event for opensuse and they have to get together all the stuff, logistics, etc .... They have to send all that mail to the opensuse-es ??? In Costa Rica, Panama and other country that belongs to opensuse-es don't want to receive all that mails ... Greetings -- Ing.

Those lists are *language-specific* lists, not regional/country-specific. ;-) However, I don't think having country-specific lists is the best solution. As you may know, there are hundreds of countries all over the world and there are some countries where some different languages are spoken, for example in Switzerland, there are people who speak German, French, Italian and Rhaeto-Romance. Another solution which I'd propose is, adding tags like [Nicaragua] to the subject and posting to -es list, if the post is mainly targeted to people living in Nicaragua. For example: [Nicaragua] Call for help: There will be an event... # Of course the subject should be written in Spanish. ;-) Best, -- _/_/ Satoru Matsumoto - openSUSE Member - Japan _/_/ _/_/ Marketing/Weekly News/openFATE Screening Team _/_/ _/_/ mail: helios_reds_at_gmx.net / irc: HeliosReds _/_/ _/_/ http://blog.zaq.ne.jp/opensuse/ _/_/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

I guess that Alex is more interested in local project team mls which are more around the topic of "What are we doing in our region/country to push openSUSE". The already existing language lists are more user lists to communicate in native language about the distribution and to help each other. So they are more technical. I actually think adding local lists which may be managed/coordinated by the respective ambassador is a good idea but a mailing list on its own might not be enough. In my opinion to a local group should belong as well: - a web page - regular meetings - maybe an IRC channel Best Michael > -- Michael Löffler, Product Management SUSE LINUX Products GmbH - Nürnberg - AG Nürnberg - HRB 16746 - GF: Markus Rex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org

In my opinion to a local group should belong as well: > - a web page > - regular meetings > - maybe an IRC channel I think that the opensuse-marketing list is the best place to plan such events. In my opinion, it makes no sense to create a list for each country/region. But it would be an idea to create a list which is specialized for events (around the world)!

Not in the way that the ambassador should be contacted for such materials, but in the way that the ambassador should assess their particular region and become the facilitator of such coordination, as well as aggregating the information that can be parsed centrally. Which addresses the higher need for better organization of the Ambassador program. its something I'd like to see being further discussed and several of us on the Board have also been anxious to see some re-development of the Ambassador program in order to give ambassadors the resources they need and thus the community the resources they need in turn.

Thinking about new mailing lists, I came to the idea of making different lists for e.g. the weekly news and it's translators. That would help to separate mails of different topics.
