[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE 11.4 Release Party
Time: Thursday, March 10 · 5:00pm - 7:00pm Location: The Copper Hog · 1327 North State Street After 8 months of hard work, the openSUSE community releases openSUSE 11.4 to the world on March 10. During the last 8 months, many things changed. The openSUSE conference has marked a new point in the evolution of openSUSE, resulting in renewed energy and new initiatives popping up in the months since the conference. Some of those already made it into this release (like Tumbleweed), others will come in future openSUSE versions. Come out and celebrate our release! First 10 RSVPs will have table seating and a free round. Additional attendees may party at the Copper Hog's most excellent bar. openSUSE 11.4 DVDs and swag will be available to all attendees, but please RSVP here so I know how many to bring! http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=169441903122687 - James Mason 'bear454' -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
Despite the short notice, I had a nice collection of folks come out to
celebrate the release. In the end, we had 7 attendees, who all took
home 11.4 promo DVDs, system stickers, and cable keepers.
The biggest surprise among the attendees was a local Microsoft
contractor who specializes in network architecture and software
audits. He was really excited to see the tools available, like
netcat, wireshark, and ntfs-3g, that could be run on a live CD or
thumb drive (without installing anything on a pc).

this is prety funny, as I had already the same reaction 10 years ago when making a course for telecom technician. They had a laptop computer pre-installed by they admin and untouchable. I was then showing the live Knoppix (there where no live SuSE ATM) and used the little system recovery partition for config save. They where delighted to have all these tools at hand to test the then brand new ADSL :-) jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgxog7_clip-l-ombre-et-la-lumiere-3-bad-pig... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGgv_ZFtV14 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
