[opensuse-project] we stopped selling openSUSE shirts - trademark permission request
by Gabor Kum 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

Hi Board Members, At HELLOTUX we had permission to sell embroidered openSUSE shirts. I asked for prolonging this permission for another year, but still no answer :-( Our plans if we can make these shirts again: 1. New, green color, with white embroidery. I made a demo, it is really cool! 2. We would like to contribute shirts to members/ambassadors in the same way as we do with the Hungarian Ubuntu Community or donate money as for Linux Mint, Kubuntu or LXLE. 3. Sweater, kitchen apron, etc... What do you think? -- Gabor Kum owner of HELLOTUX - European Linux Clothes www.hellotux.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Confirmation: Sleep over at the venue is a go!
by Hans de Raad 23 Feb '15

23 Feb '15

Dear all! We've just received confirmation about something we think is very cool: We will have 50 sleepover beds (at least, more are still under negotiation) at the openSUSE Conference and Kolab Summit venue!!! Costs aren't 100% definitive yet, but you can expect to spend about E 50,- for 4 nights (which is E 12,50 per night, you won't get a better deal than that!). Also, we're looking into organizing some allnighters, like a LAN party or suchlike, so dust off your Quake engines! ;-) We'll keep you posted as soon as more info becomes available, registration for this will be separate from the conference registration, stay tuned!

[opensuse-project] FOSDEM Wrap up regarding oSC
by Hans de Raad 17 Feb '15

17 Feb '15

Hi All! Here is a little update on all the topics discussed past weekend at FOSDEM: - Entertainment for the conf We have invited Awesome Retro to provide us with their amazing vintage computer game machines, this will no doubt provide a great challenge to all participants trying to battle each other in Prince of Persia, Streetfighter, Tetris, Pong and many more great games! - Some more talks Radically Open Security will do a talk about their open source business model. Markus Feilner will do a talk about open source and media relations. Brenno de Winter (famous Dutch research journalist) has also confirmed to be present and to do a talk about the necessity of open source software in a free society. - Lock picking workshops Security is obviously a very urgent topic and not only in the digital realm! At the CCC conf a German minister got her fingerprints copied from hi-res press images, and we will offer something at least as scary/interesting. Did you know that you only need a picture of a key to "hack" a lock? Well, come and see! - Organizations invited We (Robin and myself) have spoken to GNOME, KDE, Tor, Diaspora, FSFE and many others to invite them to the conference. We are working with LibreOffice to get a joint devroom as well. - Joint openSUSE and Kolab dev room We all love having our data under our own control and Kolab offers you just that: email/calendar/file-storage it's got it all! But what would be even better? Let's try to integrate the Kolab setup with the Yast mailserver toolchain! Yast already offers quite a lot of useful features to work with Kolab (LDAP user management, firewalls, webserver, etc), the next logical step would be to tighten those warm relations even more and in the meantime improve the Yast mailserver component. - Cyrus IMAP server 3 sneak preview and dev room We have just received preliminary confirmation that Bron Gondwana (one of the lead developers for the well known Cyrus IMAP server) will also attend both our conferences (Kolab Summit and openSUSE Conference), and he'll probably bring friends! So what would be better than sitting down with them in a dev room to work on Cyrus IMAP servers' openSUSE offerings and look at the great features in store for Cyrus 3. - LPI Exams Have been confirmed to take place again at the oSC. Possibly we will also be hosting LF exams. And besides all that goodness, we also had a very nice social at the Cafe Belga, it was great to see you all. Some more news, last week I attended another conf (phpBenelux in Antwerp) and spoken to quite a lot of speakers about our conference as well. I've got some very interesting talks confirmed: - Ansible (an alternative to Chef and Puppet) - Docker Security (by the person who writes rkhunter) We are still looking for speakers and we really want your help there. Don't forget to register for the conference at http://conference.opensuse.org. More to come!
