[opensuse-summit] announcing Es translation of site
Heya all, I almost forgot: we were supposed to announce the spanish translation of the site. I've kept it short, there is not that much to say, but if I missed something I'd love to hear it: http://news.opensuse.org/?p=13234&preview=true Will go live Monday. /Jos

What we really need is to target Spanish-speaking media to send them press release. Spanish-speakers probably aren't reading news.o.o that much unless they already know English. So... can we come up with a list of Spanish-speaking media publications we can send the release to? I've asked itxshell to come up with a list, but if more of you can do this and add to a big list, then Jos can send to them directly. Thanks!

Yup. News.o.o is English, a spanish translation there might not make sense. It does in a blog and of course in the direction of Spanish media...
Thanks! Bryen
Hello Geekos!
I can help with spanish translation if needed ;)

Thank you Ricardo, this is *VERY* helpful and I'm sure Jos appreciates this awesome list that he'll be able to reference and add to his cache of press contacts for openSUSE. New question: Since you mention that most of these publications are external from Central America, I am curious what do most people in the Central America FOSS community rely on to follow news about events? Are there major non-"non-official-media" bloggers that people follow? Is there anyone we can contact to ask them to publish our information on their blogs? Also, what about social media sites? I know there is a openSUSE Honduras facebook page created by itxshell. And Sebastian showed me a GoSH (openSUSE Guatemala users group) website a long time ago. Let's figure out those as well and ask them to promote/publish our announcements as well. As you know, I am very interested in making sure our Summit is bi-lingual so that we can join the nearby communities in US and Latin America. We need your help to continually spread the word. It is important that we get Spanish-speakers to submit CfP's or we won't actually have bi-lingual event. So we're counting on you guys to be our Spanish-language marketeers! :-) Again, many thanks so far to all of you for your great work!

I am not able to answer it. My recent experience with Central America don't let me talk about it. I know there is irc channel #slca (Software Libre Centro America) most people communicate each other. Let ask some people like tian2992, konelix, itxshell, etc...) Sure they know better than me.
Also, what about social media sites? I know there is a openSUSE Honduras facebook page created by itxshell. And Sebastian showed me a GoSH (openSUSE Guatemala users group) website a long time ago. Let's figure out those as well and ask them to promote/publish our announcements as well.
I can post it on openSUSE en Español (Facebook) and openSUSE Panama Users Group (Facebook), and making an invitation to some groups from Colombia like Fundacion Casa del Bosque (FCB), and other I can remember ATM.

Yes, I'll go over the list now, check which magazines we don't have contact with and mail them to add them to our list. Thanks!

Yeah, when it comes to contacting them - you guys and girls need to help. I wonder, do you think they'd appreciate getting information from us, even if it is in English? The Spanish magazines, I mean... I don't think we can realistically handle setting up a multi-language press lists like the English we have but journalists might know enough English to translate the stuff from the English list for their local readers... I mean, most of the FOSS news is English anyway. Do you think I should ask them too? In that case we might want to ask our ambassadors and marketeers to ask more magazines for their info details so we can mail them too.
Again, many thanks so far to all of you for your great work!
