and we badly need non developers members to promote openSUSE
+1 Just FYI: Above '+1' is from a non 'openSUSE member' i.e. non developer without 'those' perks i.e. openSUSE e-mail address. ^_^ I inquired about 'how to' get those perks with fellow Geeko's from India but seems like I need to be a developer for that. Would be nice to get openSUSE.org e-mail address at oSC's in person. [Of course after verification of identity of a non developer contributor to openSUSE.] Now the obvious question = Why a non developer need's a openSUSE e-mail address? Answer: i) I can correlate it to key signing party which happens at many of our openSUSE conf's. ii) 2ndly I believe it's a trusted platform to communicate directly with openSUSE contributors iii) It gives more fine impression of openSUSE when I am/we are promoting it in respective regions worldwide via e-mail. iv) Promotional e-mail from public domains are filtered by readers easily inc auto e-mail sorting facility by GMAIL for example. May be we can restrict non developer members from voting at initial stage but at same time can accommodate them in 'openSUSE Members' club? :-) I hope I am not distracting the subject line. Thanks & Regards, Amey.

welcome :-)

not at all. On the beginning it was even not possible to become a mamber if only maintaining a package, but this changed (as it should). But, of course, it needs some contribution *visible* from the membership comity and so either be visible on the net or be backed by some body of known faith. Report about a booth with photo is a good start, as are helping posts on mailing list or forums, as are translation efforts, etc...
Would be nice to get openSUSE.org e-mail address at oSC's in person.
did you come to OSC-15? may be we met there?

I guess this is the main reason. it's also a way for the openSUSE project to give a positive signal (ling the school ring on some very known English schools) jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
