Subject: Re: [opensuse-marketing] <idea> Lists of openSUSE local teams
From: Александр Мелентьев
Hi everyone
Some time ago asking about the mailing lists of the opensuse community. The response I got was that the only lists that there are these >> http://lists.opensuse.org/
My proposal is to establish official lists of the project for each country, just as it does ubuntu which has a Local Community for each one of them. https://lists.ubuntu.com/#Ubuntu+Worldwide+LoCo+Teams In this way you can have topics and talks of local communities, closer support and communications of the country.
Nicaragua currently have this list suse-ni@opensuse.org.ni but we are experiencing a lot of errors as users went from 100 to 350 more or less and where we hosted the mailman (handler list) is blocking and removing members (today I found that the poor list only has 80 members)
You can do the admin for the ambassador of that specific list.
We push this idea? I think other countries would love the idea. I can't see how this differs from national lists presented in the last

: section of lists.opensuse.org. There are a lot of national lists already.
Those lists are *language-specific* lists, not regional/country-specific. ;-) However, I don't think having country-specific lists is the best solution. As you may know, there are hundreds of countries all over the world and there are some countries where some different languages are spoken, for example in Switzerland, there are people who speak German, French, Italian and Rhaeto-Romance. Another solution which I'd propose is, adding tags like [Nicaragua] to the subject and posting to -es list, if the post is mainly targeted to people living in Nicaragua. For example: [Nicaragua] Call for help: There will be an event... # Of course the subject should be written in Spanish. ;-) Best, -- _/_/ Satoru Matsumoto - openSUSE Member - Japan _/_/ _/_/ Marketing/Weekly News/openFATE Screening Team _/_/ _/_/ mail: helios_reds_at_gmx.net / irc: HeliosReds _/_/ _/_/ http://blog.zaq.ne.jp/opensuse/ _/_/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
