[opensuse-project] Looking for "case studies"
Hi all, The marketing team is looking for case studies, user stories around openSUSE: Basically, success stories of using openSUSE. More specifically, examples of openSUSE being used in an organization in interesting ways. Using openSUSE to replace proprietary software, or using customized versions of openSUSE in business environments, educational deployments, etc. We'd also welcome examples of using the openSUSE Build Service to solve problems. The wiki page is here: http://en.opensuse.org/Case_Studies (Thanks to Kevin Dupuy for starting the page based on the marketing team discussion). There's no time limit - feel free to add stories as you run across them (with permission from the organization, of course - some orgs might not want to disclose those types of details...). The really important thing is that we get a contact that's willing to talk about the use of openSUSE, as we might want to point reporters in their direction, quote them in official announcements, and so forth. Thanks!

FWIW, I've added a story - not sure it's much of a case study, but still. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org

The Roskilde Festival is using openSUSE for their backend server and database stuff. It's probably one of the biggest music festivals in the world, tens of thousands of people predominantly from Germany, Sweden and Norway travel there every year. The Danish article probably won't do you much good, maybe google translate can help: http://www.computerworld.dk/art/46894?page=1 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
