Hi Suresh,

On top of what Fred advised, please find some GNOME related slides here:
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeMarketing/MarketingMaterial/Presentations
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeAsia/2011Summit/Slides

And if you need help in getting a domain of srilanaka.gnome.org, please 
send a request to the gnome-infrastructure list and specify your need 
and requirements:

gnome-infrastruct...@gnome.org 
http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-infrastructure

All the best to your event and your establishment of GNOME User Group! 
Please do let us know if you have any other question and keep us posted 
on the status :)

For the goodies part you have unfortunately missed the launch party 
offer by about 2 months (we sent goodies to any party organizer who 
registered before February 15th). I am not sure when we will have a 
similar offer again. My experience in Bangalore during the GNOME.Asia 
Summit was that production costs in India were very low as. I assume 
it stands true for Sri Lanka as well.


Considering you seem to be trying to organize quite a big event I 
would aim to secure a few local sponsors (such as local IT companies, 
NPO, companies targeting your people interested by technology). I 
think if you're able to make a clear budget to cover water cost and a 
few stickers/balloons/banner you will easily find people or companies 
to support you. We will happily review your work if you need.


Regarding setting up a gnome user group I would first recommend you 
this presentation that was given during the 2011 GNOME.Asia Summit:
https://live.gnome.org/GnomeAsia/2011Summit/Slides?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=Pockey-Building-GNOME-User-Group.odp 



then visit https://live.gnome.org/UserGroups which goes into more 
details.


And then you can come back to us posting on gugmasters-list@ with 
further questions if you have any.


I hope I managed to address your question and look forward to be able 
to help further if needed.

Dear Suresh,

First thank you for contacting us and showing so much interest in 
promoting GNOME. I have copied the gugmasters-list@ as it is usually a 
more appropriate place for those kind of requests.


For the goodies part you have unfortunately missed the launch party 
offer by about 2 months (we sent goodies to any party organizer who 
registered before February 15th). I am not sure when we will have a 
similar offer again. My experience in Bangalore during the GNOME.Asia 
Summit was that production costs in India were very low as. I assume it 
stands true for Sri Lanka as well.


Considering you seem to be trying to organize quite a big event I would 
aim to secure a few local sponsors (such as local IT companies, NPO, 
companies targeting your people interested by technology). I think if 
you're able to make a clear budget to cover water cost and a few 
stickers/balloons/banner you will easily find people or companies to 
support you. We will happily review your work if you need.


Regarding setting up a gnome user group I would first recommend you this 
presentation that was given during the 2011 GNOME.Asia Summit:

https://live.gnome.org/GnomeAsia/2011Summit/Slides?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=Pockey-Building-GNOME-User-Group.odp

then visit https://live.gnome.org/UserGroups which goes into more details.

And then you can come back to us posting on gugmasters-list@ with 
further questions if you have any.


I hope I managed to address your question and look forward to be able to 
help further if needed.

I'm sure that would be welcome. We probably need a new ruler design
before it can be added back to the planet.

Let's use this page [1] to keep track of the outstanding web site tasks.
I'm sure there are a lot of them.

Hi!

I was actually trying to find the "new" page for friends of gnome and 
get redirected to http://www-old.gnome.org/friends/ .


Which reminds me that the FOG progress bar has now also disappeared from 
both planet and wgo.


I thought we agreed to keep it there, so is there something I can do (as
