Dear fellow lizards,
As you know, I have been part of the openSUSE Board for a few months
now, thanks to your kind election. However, work and other duties have
kept me too busy to be a useful part of the Board.
I would like to step back from my duties in the Board, and cede my post
to Stephen Shaw (known as decriptor on IRC). Stephen has been very
active in the openSUSE community, and I am sure that he will be a much
better Board member than myself.
However, this does not mean that I will stop working on openSUSE! I am
part of the openSUSE-GNOME team, and will keep working happily on the
technical side of things there.
Please welcome Stephen as the new Board member, and thanks for all,
Federico

Hello,
I would like to know how I can cancel my Novell/openSUSE account, having
all my data removed. I looked into the Novell website, but I could not
find any information on how to do that.
What is the procedure to follow?
Thanks for your help.
With kind regards,
Alberto

Hi all,
James Bottomley asked me to pass on the note that the CFP for the
Plumbers Conference closes on June 15:
http://linuxplumbersconf.org/2009/2009/04/lpc-2009-call-for-proposals/
They're trying for an inter-distribution cooperation track this year,
and are looking for "any topics you think might be useful to stimulate
discussion and co-operation between distributions."
On travel, since that comes up pretty often. The site says: A limited
number of scholarships are available to cover speaker travel and will
be awarded based on need. If you need assistance paying for travel,
please include a request in your submission. If you have any other
questions, please email the program committee at
tpc-members(a)linuxplumbersconf.org.
Best,
Zonker

Please see below the Meeting Minutes of the openSUSE Board. We welcome
any feedback and recommend to use the opensuse-project mailing list
so more people can participate. As always the openSUSE Board is
reachable through board(a)openSUSE.org
May 20, 7-9pm UTC
Participants:
Michael Löffler (michl)
Bryen Yunashko (suseROCKs)
Pascal Bleser (yaloki)
List of topics:
*Foundation
We'll investigate more into the creation of an openSUSE foundation. We
reached out already to Novell how they feel about and received
positive feedback. The foundation at the beginning should be a more
independent body then openSUSE is today and should make it easier to
collect donations in a transparent way to use directly for community
efforts.
*Expanse spotlight.o.o to Board Members
All openSUSE Board members will have access to spotlight.opensuse.org
to post/blog there.
*openSUSE Membership requests
The membership requests still are a pretty manual process. We imported
out of users.opensuse.org another bunch of requests and are in the
process of evaluation. But we need to admit we could have been faster
with that.
*Status of "ambassador program"
The Ambassador program will be announced soon by zonker (meanwhile
happened
*Add features to openFATE without being member?
During community week the request was stated several times to make it
possible to add new features for non-members as well. We had a
discussion about it and the Board recommends to make this request
happen as we think there are more up then down sides. See also

Next openSUSE Board Meeting on June 3, 7pm UTC

Hi,
I was wondering how the openSUSE open day should work (saturday of the
conference).
Who is the intended group of people to come? I assume it wil be nuernberg
local people interested in Linux, either already using openSUSE or candidates
to do so.
Are talks on the open day in german? How do we want to advertise that
special sub event 'open day'? I would suggest to print posters and place
these at schools, universities in Nuernberg.

Hi,
I don't know where to ask about FATE, so I do it here.
I created one (my first) on behalf of somebody else who is not a member. I
set the priority to "neutral", but it came out as "important". I can't
change it. How do I do it?
Also, I put the last line in "cursive", and I got the error:
Error
There were errors:
* The description is not valid richtext: Error: No declaration for
element i at :0.
Do I open a bugzilla for this? What product?

The deadline for the openSUSE Conference call for participation is coming up
pretty rapidly -- Friday, June 5th is the last day to submit a proposal. We're
looking for contributors to openSUSE, upstream projects, and members of the
openSUSE community to participate[1].
The summit will be an opportunity to bring the openSUSE contributor community
together to share ideas, experience, hack, and help guide the direction of the
project. So we're looking to members of the community to give presentations,
tutorials, and lead birds of a feather and panel sessions in several tracks:
* Community: Marketing, translations, wiki, documentation, forums, and
openSUSE governance.
* Desktop: Topics related to the openSUSE desktop, including KDE, GNOME,
Xfce, and applications.
* Server: Use of openSUSE on the server or development of server
applications.
* Toolchain and System: The kernel, YaST, packaging, and openSUSE Build
Service.
* Open Day: Saturday will include a track for openSUSE users and people new
to Linux.
If you're interested in presenting at the openSUSE Summit, fill out the Call
for Participation Form[2] with all of the details for your participation.
We're accepting talks, tutorials, birds of a feather, and panel discussion
submissions. (Birds of feather sessions will be scheduled after hours.)
The summit will not be entirely composed of prepared presentations, so we will
be accepting a limited number of proposals. Make 'em count!
