FYI - Call for Papers - would be good to have openSUSE folks here:
http://www.linux-magazine.com/Online/News/CeBIT-2010-Call-for-Papers-for-Op…
"Interested speakers can send their proposals with the title of the
talk, information about the speaker and a short description of the
content up until January 7, 2010 to events(a)linuxnewmedia.de. Talks can
be in English or German. The user-based talks and follow-up Q&As are
scheduled for 40 minutes; the presentations of free projects should be
20 minutes each."
Best,
Zonker

For the current 2009 election of the openSUSE board, we have three
seats for election and three candidates running unopposed. As our
existing election rules did not anticipate this scenario, the Election
Committee has made the following decision:
The seats up for election include one Novell-employed position and two
non-Novell-employed positions. Pavol Rusnak is running for the
Novell-employed seat and Rupert Horstkötter and Bryen Yunashko are
running for the non_novell seats.
The election committee will declare the candidates as elected by end
of Monday, 7th of December, if nobody else steps up in the respective
group to run for the election. Otherwise we will have an election in
that group.
This means that if further candidates for the non-Novell seats declare
candidacy, we will do an election for these two seats - and if further
candidates for the Novell seat step up, we run an election for that
one seat - and if candidates for both step up, we elect all seats.
So, here's the final call: If you're happy with the three candidates,
thank them - and if not, step up and declare your candidacy by
announcing it on opensuse-project(a)opensuse.org and
election-officials(a)opensuse.org. You can find more
information on candidacy and the election in general here:
http://en.opensuse.org/Board_Election/2009
The Election committee is also open for comments on the election
before the December 7th deadline when the Election Committee will
declare and certify the winners.
We'd like to thank Bryen, Rupert and Pavol for stepping up and
volunteering to serve on the openSUSE board. For next election the
election committee will adapt the rules to cover cases like this one.

Before migrating we need to make sure that the pages are checked or
not.Which i guess is not in all cases,and i completely agree that
checking them out is tough job and a lot of time consuming.So a
alternative needs to be planned though we'll be starting from a scratch.
In concerned to that many are mentioned over here by Rajko -
http://en.opensuse.org/Portal/All - i believe this could be of some
help,actually major help. :)

Hello ppl ,
Well after having a quite short discussion on Google Wave over the IRC
(unfortunately we dont have minutes for this )and how it would help in
marketing the product ,we actually came to a decision that we need more
testers to get to know its advantages as most of us were not very much
sure with its working and benefits.Later on ( almost after 2 weeks) a
date would be scheduled to have a meet up on this topic and then present
our views and feedback for the same .
So if you are well versed with the Wave thing then have some more time
testing it and tune in to the next session.And if you are not then this
the time, shoot it . **Time is running**
:)
Remember: Sign up your names over here -
http://en.opensuse.org/SocNet/GooleWave_user_list - to get more contacts
for better testing and analyzing.
Have a lot of fun !
