[opensuse-project] How we will use the GSoC money
by Vincent Untz 18 Jul '24

18 Jul '24

Hi, (let's see how a public discussion about money goes :-)) The Google Summer of Code brings us great students, but also means that the openSUSE project will get $8000 (if I'm not mistaken) at the end of the summer. That's $500 per student. A while ago, I requested comments on my blog about what to do with the money, but didn't get any feedback. So I take this as "do what you feel is best", and this mail is about the plan. As a reminder, the main issue is that we will likely not have the openSUSE Foundation created in time for this. For instance, Google would like us to get some form filled before the end of June; this is not a mandatory timeline, but I think it shows that we won't be ready with the Foundation for that. The current plan is to give that money to another organization we feel close to, and I have two candidates in mind: - the Software Freedom Conservancy (http://sfconservancy.org/) it's a really nice org that provides a home for various cool projects (see http://sfconservancy.org/members/current/) and those projects help make openSUSE a great project. - the Desktop Summit (https://www.desktopsummit.org/) it's one of the biggest event this year, and this would help us have some more visibility (since we'd be sponsors, I guess). I'm sure they would welcome this to secure their budget. Note that an alternative solution would be to leave the money to Google for a future GSoC or similar program, but I feel it's better to use the money where it can make a difference today. Now, it's not too late to change the plan. If you have a better suggestion, please tell us. There's no need to argue forever about it, just explain why you think it's good. Keep in mind that if we cannot receive the money ourselves, this also means that we cannot use it to buy stuff for openSUSE. Pavol and I will take the final decision since we are the GSoC admins for openSUSE.

[opensuse-project] FOSDEM openSUSE party?
by Hans de Raad 30 Jan '15

30 Jan '15

Hi All, we recently touched the subject of having an openSUSE get-together at FOSDEM, let's make this a little more concrete! 2 years ago we had an excellent dinner at restaurant Le Delire Parisien near Avenue Louisa on the Saturday evening, but that might be a little above the financial profile we're looking for, so I'd like to propose a couple of locations in the neighborhood to see if we can get this setup! - Michael Collins Irish Pub - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Michael+Collins+Irish+Pub/@50.825709,4.36… I've been here before, It's quite a decent location to get some beers and enjoy a nice evening (although service can be a tad slowish, the beer definitely makes up for that). We shouldn't come here if the group exceeds 10/15 people because they don't have room for that. It's about 15 min walking from the ULB or <10 min by tram. - Cafe Belga - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Caf%C3%A9+Belga/@50.8258378,4.3675171,17z… An absolute institute in Brussels, they have live music/dj in the evening and a renowned Belgian fries stand around the corner (100 m - Frit Flagey). It's at walking distance from the ULB (5/10 minutes). They can easily handle large groups. - Sounds Jazz Club - https://www.google.com/maps/place/Sounds+Jazz+Club/@50.8288196,4.358698,15z… Some call this the best Jazz club in Brussels, and you can get Italian food at a decent price here. This is also more suitable for a smaller group (between 10/20 people) It's about 15/20 min walking from the ULB or <10 min by tram. Does anyone have a preference or should we just roll a dice! See you at FOSDEM! Hans de Raad -- OpenNovations / DevHdR Van Sevenbergestraat 49 2274PK Voorburg Tel +31 6 83578847 www.hcderaad.nl

Hi Kenneth, One spontaneous feed back this morning ... Of course, in an enterprise, the name, branding, logo, website and coherence are one great important point. And in most case, the enterprise ask to professional designers to care about this. And in such a relation (expert-client), the custumer can choose what he like or not, or choose another provider. And ... when the client need a flyer or anything, for a special event, he can ask the provider - and get again a choice for that. Is that right ? One context => one average process Now ... openSUSE ... Could we take 3 minutes to "compare" ? to analyse the differences ? Not the same at all, of course. I just give you a few examples : - OSC 11 Nürberg (first time I came) : as a "new visitors", the logo was great, but much more the plush ... it was FUN !! Each one has his geeko, ans openSUSE pictures went around (many ppl with a "symbol" on shoulder"). Now ? where are the geekos plush ? ah ok, just for SUSE ? (I dont know the motivations or reason, I just can analyse the outside result/effect) Last year, I was taking care of the FOSDEM booth (with Ancor, Bruno, yorgo, alexandro ..) - and we received (for the first time ... the "booth box" ... after many waiting months, if I remember well) So, we opened the gift ;-) and discovered the flyers, posters ... (I went to your talk at OSC13 ... and ok you explained your choices ... back pens and USBkeys, technical things ...OK nice talk) Again if I remember well, there was an article written about material booth (after the fosdem). And of course you DID GREAT job !! Did anybody from the design team noticed what we gave as a feed back ? (no reaction) For example : green is nice, but green beside green upon green ... make absolute no contrast on a booth ...OK ... this mail is not to start a talk on technical & look details (size of logo, respecting or not). You are an expert, and a designer, and that's fine. According to me, there are 3 "process bug" to solve : - 1. when openSUSE guys need to organize an event, and we saw calls on the project list (for OSC 15 and for mini summit scale), there were no proposition at all - Except Andy ... so presently, the big question would be : who do the design work in openSUSE (better than ... oh openSUSE designer should respect the rules) ? So what ? how can geekos organize event (all around) and have specific posters ? -2. when you suggest logo, posters, material ... where you open to change a detail ? I dont think so. The community did not have a choice. One color is like boring ... all the same ... Could we remember that "let's have FUN" was essential ? so What ? where is openSUSE choice ? -3. of course Andres, it would be the FUN to get a new logo, website and plush (I'm thinking to KDE Gonki) for openSUSE, but you know it's a long work, hours, ideas, brainstormings, creation and ... CHOICES (like it was donr for the china mini-summit : ppl could vote) So what ? Are you (Kenneth) the openSUSE designer ? And having time to do that great project ? Or can the board call for providers to suggest project&quot ? = This is a question for the board When openSUSE ppll do mini summit, who is able to do the job ? so lol, "this email might sound like the beating of a drum". OK you are a professional, but you ask to the community to respect design rules ... but the first problem (to find a solution) is to get competent ppl to do the job (website, logo, posters, flyers ...) when ppl need (as scale), thanks for reading and have fun today ;-) Françoise -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] oSC15 - Drive to 150
by Robert Schweikert 16 Jan '15

16 Jan '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, oSC15 is coming up, May 1-4 in The Hague, and as you may or may not know we are in a bit of trouble concerning registrations and talk submissions. Additionally some legislation changes eventually trickled down to effect us and we have to move our venue. Our previous location BINK36 is being sold as the current owner is being forced, via legislation, to re-focus their effort on housing rentals rather than side projects such as venue rentals. The sales process of BINK36 leaves us in limbo with respect to signing a contract and thus we have to move to a new venue. Thanks to the effort of Hans and Robin a new location has already been found and we are ready to leave BINK36 behind and look forward to meet at Westvliet (http://www.westvliet.nl/algemeen/sfeerimpressie/ .) While this is primarily a sports facility there is plenty of room for us to hang out, chat, hack, and have fun together. Thus, as of today we focus on a new venue and move forward. The new venue is located in a town called Voorburg just on the outskirts of The Hague. The location is easily reachable by train from down town The Hague, thus if you already booked a Hotel there is nothing to worry about. So much for the news about the venue change, an article will appear shortly on news.o.o. Now to my personal appeal to everyone. Yes, we certainly had some rough times over the last couple of years and some of us are probably still disgruntled. However, I think the time has come to let the past rest and look forward to new horizons. oSC15 is a great opportunity to do just that. We can all come together re-kindle the spirit that has made past events great with large numbers of us Geekos participating in oSC. oSC is our event, it can only be successfull if as many of us as possible participate. Whether we discuss the booth boxes, marketing efforts, design, or technical contributions, all areas benefit from face to face time. oSC is our opportunity to meet face to face and discuss and improve the state of our project. As with every conference TSP money is available to help get you to the conference. With the budget in very good shape there will be extra money available for the TSP to help more people get to oSC. The TSP period will open in the near future, watch out for announcements. Please consider to join your fellow Geekos at oSC15 in The Hague, May 1 - 4, 2015. The goal is to have at least 150 people at the conference, overshooting the goal would certainly be a welcome sign of live. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope to see you in The Hague.

[opensuse-project] 費用なしの自然被リンクで、簡単・安全に SEO ができるサイトを作りました。個人様や中小企業様のサイトもたくさん上位表示されてます。
by "波野環" 10 Jan '15

10 Jan '15

ウェブサイトの管理者様初めまして、波野環と申します。ウェブサイトを拝見してメールをさせて頂きました。私は個人のプログラマーをしておりますが、個人事業主様や中小企業様、趣味のサイト様などが、ヤフーやグーグルで、無料でカンタン・安全に上位表示を達成することができるようにできないかと考え、今回、仲間とともに、趣味の延長で、ヤフーやグーグルでの上位表示にとって決定的に重要な「自然な被リンク」をゆっくり増やすことを支援するサイトを制作しました。サイト：リンクＭＡＸ　http://www.linkmax.biz/ つきましては、せっかく制作いたしましたので、なるだけ多くの方にご利用いただき、ホームページのアクセスアップにお役立て頂ければと考え、初めてで失礼かとも思いましたが、メールをさせて頂きました。もちろん、全くの無料である上、メールアドレスの登録などもなく、とてもカンタンに、普通に運営されている一般の優良サイトから、好きなキーワードで自サイトにリンクをもらうことができるという、安全で、画期的な仕組みです。また、登録している間は被リンクが、半永久的にが増え続ける点もご評価頂けると思います。さらに、御社のサイトに張られるリンクはいわゆる「自然な被リンク」なので、グーグルからのペナルティの心配もなく、安全です。このため、御社のウェブサイトはゆっくりとしたペースで、無理なくサーチエンジンの上位を狙うことができますので、きっと、御社の集客、ひいては売上アップにも貢献できるものと思います。現に、リンクMAX自身が、リンクMAXを用いて多くの被リンクを得ていますが、その結果、「リンク」というビッグワードで早期に上位表示を達成しており、近時世の中を騒がせているグーグルのペンギンアップデートなどの影響も全く受けていません。それでは、御社のサイトのSEO対策、ひいては集客力向上に少しでもお役立て頂ければとても嬉しく思います。リンクMAXのサイトでお待ちしております。 →リンクＭＡＸ　http://www.linkmax.biz/ ■□ 波野　環メール: namino(a)fuyasuch.com 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　□■ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
