Hi Jos,
it would be great to have somebody from openSUSE giving a talk in
[1]Akademy-es on May 20th in Saragossa. Its municipality uses openSUSE
+ GNOME so the person you send can also open a channel with them. It
is the most advance migration project in small public administrations
in spain (municipalities).
On May 18th we will have some talks for wide audience. Since openSUSE
does a great job with KDE, maybe talking about the news related with
the destop and other services could be a good one.
[2]Call for papers is open until April 23th. We expect about 80 people
there.

Hello everybody,
I take Cristian Mircea Messel's advice[1], and introduce myself. My
name is Andrei Petre, I currently am in my second Bachelor year,
studying in the field of Computer Science at Politehnica University of
Bucharest, Romania. I enjoy getting to know new people, and learning
new things, to help improve my knowledge and myself, in general.
I've read the ideas page from OpenSuse's GSoC and I searched mainly
for projects containing languages that I already know, but I stopped
at ssc[1], although I don't really know ruby; I recently started
coding in it a bit (a very basic HTTP server in ruby[3], my very first
ruby code, actually). I am familiar with python, java, c (strongest),
c++ (some, not much), android (currently developing sth), so I think I
could learn it, documenting myself for ~1week.
Is this a problem, not being familiar with ruby? I would like to
express my interest towards ssc project, as I liked the project's
description and its idea. I too am a CLI kind of guy, and I use
git[2], more locally than with github, though.
Sorry, I am not an opensuse user (don't yell :P), I mainly use ubuntu,
but I've been thinking of changing to arch / opensuse / fedora / deb.
Anyway, sorry for long email and hopefully someone was patient enought
to read it.
Thanks!

Hi all,
April 16-17 in Antwerp, Belgium, the Linux Open Administration Days will
take place. This free event offers a chance for LPI certification as
well as meeting and talking to linux sysadmins. There is a call for
presentations here: http://www.loadays.org/content/call-presentations
If you want to go and give a talk there about openSUSE tech - that's be
awesome. If you can't afford to go there due to travel or hotel costs,
let me know, we might be able to work something out ;-)
cheers,
Jos
Hi,
I am Akshit Khurana, third year Computer Science student at IIT
Roorkee. I would like to work on the Popularity contest for RPM
(popcorn) project.[0]
I am a part of Information Management Group, in IIT Roorkee, which is
a student body responsible for developing and managing all Internet
and Intranet applications in IIT Roorkee, including the institute
website and registration & placement portals.[1] One of the projects I
have worked at IMG is Softwares application.[2][3]
I have some experience in web development in python and django, so I
would be fairly comfortable with Flask framework and SQLAlchemy. I've
started reading about RPM from the links mentioned on the ideas page.
I have got in touch with the project mentor Ionuț Arțăriși to know
more about the project. He helped me to set up popcorn on my system to
get started.
Thanks,
Akshit

Hello friends,
I see that Razor-qt is inside our Factory repository for 12.2. I also
see on the razor-qt mailing list that there's a huge progress with it.
Since I'm not familiar with creating the DVD, I was wondering if it's
possible to change LXDE with Razor-qt or if not, then add it as extra
environment to the list.

We (de-Wiki) watched the same issues.
For examble. If I search in the German Wiki for "Paketbau" I get no result,
nothing, zero... But there are a lot of pages. I translate them currently.
Only if I know the exact name of the page, than i will get a result.
Is there anyone who can improve this tool?

Hello everybody,
My name is Efstathios Agrapidis (efagra) and I am a final year
undergraduate student at the University of Macedonia [1] in Greece,
where I study Applied Information Technology. I am currently an
openSUSE user for the last two years and linux user since almost a
decade (hoping from one distro to another), but really new to the
beauty of the community behind such projects (one and a half year). I
have mostly contributed to the greek part of the community by
mentoring in this year's GCI, partitipating in events, translating
software/weekly news/wiki, making presentations and I think this would
be the best oportunity for me to start contributing in the software
part of the distribution.
>From computer languages I currently speak (I may say fluently) c/c++
and java. I am interested in software optimisation and parallelization
and have worked with CUDA, opencl, MPI, and RMI. I have also studied a
little about perl and python in the past that are required by some of
the ideas, so I think I can catch up easily. As far as database
languages is concerned I also know SQL and have worked with sqlite and
MySQL. I should notice that I have a large learning apetite so any new
knowledge that can and will come by partitipating in such an event is
more than welcome and desired.
I am not interested only in one specific project but in many and I
need guidance on how to proceed, as I have different reasons for each
idea. Below I am listing all of them line by line:
SUSE Studio Java Client SDK
Gtk Front End to Oyranos
Redesign fdisk to be more extensible and implement GPT support
On-demand Symbolic Memory
Concolic Symbolic Execution
LTP:Fix/Implement automated kernel/glibc tests
Automatic resizing of LVM volumes and filesystems
I am really excited about this.
Greeting,
efagra

The openSUSE community is happy to announce that starting March 29 the
openSUSE Summit team will accept session proposals for the openSUSE Summit.
The openSUSE Summit will take place from September 21-23, 2012 in Orlando
Florida at the Caribe Royale Hotel. The proposal submission period ends on
June 15, 2012 at midnight EDT. Final announcement of the program will occur
on or before July 23, 2012. Starting today our website on
summmit.opensuse.org is online and ready to inform you about our summit!
The Summit aims to continue the tradition of fun and exciting gatherings for
openSUSE in the Americas. We will deliver a bi-lingual event with some
sessions offered in English and some in Spanish. In good openSUSE spirit we
also want to make this event as welcoming as possible by inviting other
projects to participate in the Summit.
=Paper submissions=
We hereby invite the openSUSE and wider Free Software community to submit
session proposals for the openSUSE summit. The openSUSE Summit will have 3
tracks as outlined below. Presentations, BoF (Birds of a Feather) sessions
and work shops are expected to align with the track topic.
* openSUSE Community
The openSUSE Community track provides information and discussion around the
openSUSE community. Topics include but are not limited to Project governance
and organization, ambassadorship and getting involved.
* openSUSE Tech
The openSUSE Tech track provides information, discussion, and hands on
experience with the technology that makes openSUSE tick. Topics in this
track include, but are not limited to the openSUSE development model,
Packaging workshops, the Open Build Service, KIWI and more.
* open World
The open World track provides a platform to present your project, or listen
to the interesting things our sponsors want to share. Topics in this track
may cover demos and HowTos, FOSS project introductions, or other interesting
topics from areas such as the "Maker movement". This is also the platform
for cross-community collaboration with upstream or other Linux
distributions.
=Fun=
The openSUSE Summit, by virtue of being an openSUSE event, has fun high on
the agenda. Therefore, proposals that are "outside the box" of a "regular"
software focused conference are encouraged. Collaboratively Building a Giant
Paper Mache Geeko has already been proposed and rejected due to
environmental concerns.
=How to submit session proposals=
Submit proposals for the openSUSE Summit using the registration and
submission website at [1]. If you have not spoken at a previous openSUSE
event, please create a new account to submit an abstract. The abstract
submission should contain at least a 200 word description of the topic you
plan to discuss, as well as a short (~ 50 word) description of yourself.
*Please note:* All openSUSE events are governed by the openSUSE Code of
Conduct [2]. The speaker guidelines [3] outline requirements for the
submission of proposals and provide other valuable information for speakers.
