[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.

[opensuse-project] Elections Results
by Kostas Koudaras 14 May '18

14 May '18

It was the first year we attempted to vote through Helios Voting System and we solved all problems that came to our attention. I must say that although the work of the election committee ends somewhere around here the new elected members have a long way ahead of them … [View More]

[opensuse-project] Online Bullying Tactics Waste Time
by Fraser_Bell 18 Apr '18

18 Apr '18

Some may say this is off topic, but I think it is on topic for the Project and for the Mailing Lists: To those who would resort to using my Board candidacy for online bullying tactics to try to silence me when I have a valid point(s), it is not only against the Guiding Principles, but it is a complete waste of time. Let me make it clear. I only offered up my Candidacy for the Board for three reasons: 1) I care about openSUSE and how it is governed; 2) There were only 3 candidates I … [View More]
