1. did you go to OSC12-13-14 ? 2. When yes, where you volonteers, talkers ? did you ask for tsp ? Yes I attended OSC12-13-14 In some ways yes [Volunteering] . I tend to upload live session updates,photos via various feeds like Twitter [ with hash-tags to include major open source communities/projects/cities in my country],openSUSE Facebook page & Google Plus. Yes I asked for TSP 3. Will you go to osc15 ? => when no, why => when perhaps : what makes your decision ? 99.99% Yes! [ I don't mean "SLA" way :-D . But yes I mean "Definitely". ] 4. Have you any ideas on how to increase ppl at OSC ? (hoe to be VISIBLE, how to be more attractive .. héhé) Yes certainly. i) May be we can focus on relatively dense city which has many open source communities,technical Universities & a city where SUSE has office. ii) Such a location in Europe which is easy to reach to every1 by means of various parameters like time,money & feasibility. 5. What kinda talks would interest you (did interest you), yes YOU ? (examples) i)osc12 really had tremendous mixture of various talks which was delightful. ii)osc13 had more technical talks as per my observation which were simply amazing. In parallel, few brief sessions about SUSE & openSUSE were really interesting. Few talks from osc13 were very relevant to my domain i.e. Telecom. It was an good learning curve to me to gain knowledge from those sessions. iii)osc14 again had many fascinating sessions from various domains/projects/communities. Special thanks to Mr.Untz for talk about "openstack + openSUSE". I was looking forward for "openstack + opensuse" talk at osc14. It is good to know the progress of such integrations/developments to promote it back in local community & afterwards at work place. iv) at osc15, looking forward to attend technical talks & also business talks like for example "ARM based data centre" by Andrew then "SUSE Linux Enterprise & openSUSE" talk by Jan Weber in osc14. I definitely missed speakers from osc12 & osc13. Hoping to see them at osc15 with interesting technical sessions like before :-) 6. Have you any idea of WHO could be a great keynote speaker for next year (and it would be better for openSUSE TSP when living in Europe ) Keynote by 1 of the board member followed by Town hall is a good option like we had in osc14. 7. Would you have time to contribuate more ? Yes I would have time to contribute more. 8. Last & option : for you, what is the best way to increase openSUSE contributors ? i) More presence in Central Asia & Middle East. ii) I came across interesting question by 1 of my friend who was trying to sign up at forums.opensuse.org & he found that his country name is not there in the list i.e. Iran. 9. free and open others ideas ? Just an idea from marketing point of view :- i) Free openSUSE media distribution in India & from India. [upon every new release] We can keep limit due to the density of region. I am pretty sure there are many out here in India who don't get latest release in short period of time [due to bandwidth issue] which results in lose/lag to them. Subsequently, they can not report/submit bugs or start building something on top of new release. [ That's a lose to our community in some ways. :-) ]. My analysis says if a new Linux user in India has FREE Linux media in his hand, he quickly adopts that road map. Classic example is Canonical Ltd.
