[opensuse-project] Google Code-in Thoughts and Reviews
by Manu Gupta 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Hi All, Google Code-in will come to an end in a few days. I would like to take the opportunity to ask feedback from people. We can discuss it from here. Personally for me, the questions that I had like to ask are this 1. How do you think Google Code-in helped us? 2. Where are the areas we can try to improve and how can we improve? A very special Thanks to Matt, Vincent, mentors and students who made this possible. -- Regards Manu Gupta -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] OFF-TOPIC : Sopa: US backers end support for anti-piracy bill
by Basil Chupin 18 Jan '12

18 Jan '12

Eight US lawmakers have withdrawn their backing from anti-piracy laws, amid "blackout" protests on thousands of internet sites. Two of the bill's co-sponsors, Marco Rubio from Florida and Roy Blunt from Missouri, are among those backing away. Online encyclopaedia Wikipedia and blog service WordPress are among the highest profile sites to block their content.

Re: [opensuse-gnome] Re: [opensuse-project] stupid 12.1
by Albert 18 Jan '12

Let's pay attention to other daily people comments from https://features.opensuse.org/312946 > "It is like Gnome Desktop Environment developers are now working against Linux... > Pure Gnome3 is just a BIG & major regress on Linux desktop, it makes Linux desktop productivity more difficult and bring useless features. Even the bars are frozen, you cannot interact, neither visual customize or configure anything. > The only Linux Mint & Mate bring some hope... I have installed open SUSE just because Linux Mint 12 have some installation bugs on HP d530 desktop, if no Mate repo I will leave open SUSE." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] The openSUSE Board invites the openSUSE community to begin planning an openSUSE event in North America
by Alan Clark 17 Jan '12

17 Jan '12

Subject: The openSUSE Board invites the openSUSE community to begin planning an openSUSE event in North America. Earlier today, SUSE delivered the exciting announcement of SUSECon, a SUSE annual conference, to be held in Orlando on September 18-21, 2012.[1] Additionally SUSE has reserved the conference venue through September 23rd and is offering the site to the openSUSE community for a multi-day openSUSE community planned event. A North America openSUSE event would not replace the openSUSE conference! The annual openSUSE conference continues to draw an increasing number of attendees, but many from North and South America have been unable to make the trip to Europe and have voiced the desire for an event a bit closer to home. SUSE, upon hearing of interest from several USA community members, was able to extend the availability of the September venue to the openSUSE community to develop and plan an event in North America. Creating an openSUSE event, co-located with SUSECon, creates an exciting opportunity to engage and further build the growing openSUSE community in the Americas. Volunteers from the openSUSE community are needed to plan, organize and staff the event. If you can help out in September, please attend the next openSUSE Project meeting on January 25th.[2] 2012 is an exciting year for openSUSE. Have a lot of fun!

[opensuse-project] RFC - opensuse steering committee ?
by Per Jessen 16 Jan '12

16 Jan '12

Apologies for the continued abuse of a much abused acronym, but a recent long-winded debate on opensuse-factory made me think that perhaps the opensuse project could do with a steering committee? I have not thought much about it, I would appreciate any and all opinions. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (1.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Taking care of #opensuse-es
by Javier Llorente 11 Jan '12

11 Jan '12

Hello everyone! Unfortunately, nobody has been taking care of the #opensuse-es IRC channel in Freenode for a long time. Ask ChanServ for info ;-) I propose giving the appropriate OP rights to an openSUSE channel maintainer in general (perhaps darix?) so that this kind of situation doesn't happen again, plus three or four long time contributors/active #opensuse-es users, such as: karlggest (long time contributor, he isn't always online, already forum moderator) SkavenXXI (long time contributor, always online in #opensuse-es) davmont (long time contributor, already forum moderator) javier (me, long time contributor, always online in #opensuse-es) Greetings, -- Javier Llorente

[opensuse-project] Social coordination for FOSDEM
by Pascal Bleser 10 Jan '12

10 Jan '12

So, FOSDEM 2012 is almost there, and I know that quite a bunch of people from openSUSE will be there. I'd propose to collect and sort of coordinate everyone or at least chunks of people to * exchange some phone numbers (if wanted) * propose and organize some place to meet and eat and drink on Friday and/or Saturday evening So if anyone is interested in joining, please send me an email (off-list, no need to spam everyone beyond this email). I'll collect names and email addresses, will quickly create a short-lived mailing-list @fosdem.org which we can use to coordinate. Please also mention if you're interested in going to a restaurant+bar on Friday evening and/or Saturday evening, in order for me to know how many people we'd be and where to make a reservation. Alternatively, we could also have a page on the wiki, but that wouldn't quite be as appropriate to broadcast some private phone numbers :) cheers -- Pascal Bleser <loki(a)fosdem.org> http://fosdem.org/ FOSDEM 2012 ::: 4 + 5 February 2012 in Brussels, Belgium Free and Opensource Software Developers European Meeting
