Arguably, something like this should be produced on-demand, rather than being warehoused for use. That's what the local reimbursement process is intended to be used for.
For what I have in mind the page https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Local_Material_Production_Reimbursement need at least large improvement, as do the TSP system. Take as example the first brochure I found in google: http://geeko.ioda.net/git/artwork/Marketing%20Materials/Flyers/openSUSE%20br... when printing such a thing, printing french version may be pretty easy, only change one plate on the machine (text one) and run for 2000 ones. if I had to print this myself, the cost would be pretty high. I know it's not that easy, transportation cost are very high, but having at least one good doc printed in several languages would be very nice. and, if the print is organized around this, the cost may be reasonable there are several kind of expenses: * local event ones. If printed locally, very cheap. print on color (green :-) paper on own laser printer. Banner around 25€.. not worth a refund (for me at least) * national one. Kind of brochure above. I think it's nearly mandatory to have one or two docs (Leap versus Tumbleweed, for example). on one of the cheaper french dealer http://www.vistaprint.fr/depliants-personnalises.aspx?txi=14950&xnid=AllProductsPage_Brochures+(linked+item)_Marketing+Materials_All+Products&xnav=AllProductsPage only a A4 folded on three pages is 700€ for 5000. I'm pretty sure SUSE can have a better price and sure I can't pay and wait 3 month the refund. It was not possible some years ago. If this changed, some examples should be shown on the wiki
Perhaps a solution here would be for me to step down from the local reimbursement team, and for jdd to pick it up?

certainly not jdd NB: forgive me if I'm not always very easy to understand. Writing this in English is very difficult for me, much more than writing a bug report :-( -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
