Hi,
It is with great regret that we have to announce that Pascal has decided
to leave the openSUSE board. Due to changes in Pascal's life he feels he
is no longer able to commit the necessary time and energy to the
openSUSE project and the openSUSE board.
As we all know, Pascal has given a lot of time to the project and the
community. He has always been willing to help, teach, and maintain. We
thank Pascal very much for his past contributions and wish him all the
best. We hope that at some point in the future, life presents another
opportunity for Pascal to get re-involved with the project and the
community.
Pascal, thank you for everything you have contributed to the openSUSE
project.
The board would like to welcome Richard Brown as its newest member to
fill the seat vacated by Pascal. Richard received the 3rd most votes
in the recent election, and was endorsed by Pascal as a preferred
candidate for the vacated seat. Richard's term will run to the next
election.
Regards,
Your openSUSE Board

With heart filled with love and will to help, I would like the bring
the following to your consideration (specially after a call for
translations) regarding this document[1]
1. Usage of therm 'refurbished' for a new distribution; While the
dictionary definition is nice and elegant, I __personally__ find this
therm reductive and negative; You can ask yourself if you would go for
a new 'refurbished' monitor for example. I'm sure this can be improved
to something more elegant. I have my doubts (no solid evidence to
backup, just common sense) that non-english native speakers will be
aware of the elegant dictionary definitions. The falacy here is, how
will people react to such therminology?
2. Usage of 'novel features'; once more I find hard that non-native
english speakers will go with the correct semantics of this kind of
wording; I assume people want to say 'striking new, surprisingly'. I
think this can be improved too (considering maybe non-native english
speakers which might find this therminology obsfuscated).
3. Message misleading or hard to decipher; Topics such as PostgreSQL
(please not it's actually a topic) start the text with MariaDB? This
is bad, really bad... GNOME Boxes topic starts with openSTACK (ain't
this one of the Novel features or is a refurbished feature ? :)).
Take 5 mins to read the whole thing... I'm sure someone can improve
some innacuracies and place some more effort on what you are doing;
Marketing people, that's your playground.

Dear openSUSE user,
the openSUSE on ARM team was quite busy the last few weeks with
getting openSUSE 12.3 for AArch64 ready. At the time of this post, we
have finished around 4000-4100 packages (out of ~ 6000) of the current
state of the openSUSE 12.3 project for AArch64. With those
successfully built packages, we’re also able to build a regular
openSUSE image for you to try and run in the ARMv8 System emulator
(ARMv8 Foundation Model).
This is a huge achievement and milestone for us, thanks to lots of
helpful hands in openSUSE. Just to put this into context: This is not
a minimal system with a couple of toolchain packages. It is also not
an embedded variant of a Linux environment. No, this is the full
featured, standard openSUSE distribution as you’re used to, ported to
AArch64, up and running. We have built it based on (slightly newer
versions of) standard openSUSE 12.3 packages, and the changes are
mostly already merged back into openSUSE Factory. For all we know it’s
also more successful package builds than any other Linux distribution
has on AArch64! If you’d like to see the status yourself, please check
out the OBS repository we created for this [1].
As an open distribution, it is important to make contributions easy
and we worked hard to enable others to participate in our effort. We
extended OBS (the Open Build Service) to automatically spawn a
Foundation Model virtual machine when you want to build for aarch64.
This works remotely on the OBS server as well as locally using osc
build. Building for AArch64 is therefore as easy as building for any
other architecture, and it feels native to all who are familiar with
the OBS. More information on this is available on the respective wiki
page [2].
So, dive right into it: Get the image and start with openSUSE on
AArch64 by following our wiki page:
https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:ARM/AArch64.
Please contact the openSUSE Team at opensuse-arm(a)opensuse.org
Greetings,
Dirk (openSUSE ARM Team)
