Re: [opensuse-marketing] Whats cool about openSUSE Flyer translation

[Kostas Koudaras]

I think somewhere in the wiki are translations of it to various
languages and If i remember correct Jdd translated to French, I will
look on to it and get back to you if I find something.

Re: [opensuse-marketing] best marketing for SUSE and openSUSE

[Kostas Koudaras]

2014-12-17 21:53 GMT+02:00 Sarah Julia Kriesch ada.lovel...@gmx.de:
 Hello all,

 I have to report, what I have seen today.
 I wanted to buy some food. A checkout counter was closed. And following 
 picture looked to me. :)

 EDEKA is a supermarket and they say normally: Wir lieben Lebensmittel. - 
 We love food.
 Now they say: Wir lieben SUSE Linux. - We love SUSE Linux.
 That`s the best marketing, we can get! I hope other supermarket chains or 
 banks will follow with something like that.

 Best regards,
 Sarah

Way too cool

[opensuse-marketing] Release party Poster

[Kostas Koudaras]

Hi guys and girls
I was wondering if there is someone around that can actually design a
new poster for the 13.2 release parties. It would be nice to have one
that people can just add the location/day/time of their party and
print it, as a reference you can look
at:https://en.opensuse.org/File:Opensuse_launch_party_smoke_by_anditosan.jpeg
Have fun

 That's good :-)

 3. There are currently a vast majority of wishes for news to be

 week.

 Hmmm so we're back to square 345 and the monthly magazine idea. I guess
 we should do both...

 Yeap we should, I think I have a Gdoc about the monthly magazine
 somewhere or else I have notes from previous conversations we had,

 Sure

 unfortunatelly this month is a rough month full of work away from
 wifi.

 No worries, just keep it from burning down completely :P

 The main problem here is manpower but this is something we could walk
 through if the planning is good.

 Nothing happens if you don't invest anything. That's just plain physics.

 Definatelly this is something we should look into it in the upcomming
 Marketing Hackfest...

 When is that?
Still under planning but sometime in late October I hope. There will
be news about that in the next 2 weeks(hopefully).

 And now for the most important part:

 In the 'write your opinion' section, the most recurring responses are
 that non-technical and technical news should be treated equally, so I
 guess we'd need a power-user who's willing to write for n.o.o.
 regularly. The other is that series like the past CLT and similar
 don't belong on the news site, but there are suggestions to either
 create a separate site like omgubuntu of fedoraftw, or to find a way
 to merge the n.o.o. with lizards. How could that be done?

 There was an OMG openSUSE page but at the end we were just a couple of
 people writing to is so the guy who made it just throw it away. With
 the exception of part of the Summer I could help on writing as I told
 you before.

 Yes another failure because of missing man power

 My opinion and it is one thing I also wanted for the magazine is to
 form a Team, make regular meetings in the Marketing Channel(IRC) as we
 did before, throw all the ideas about what we thing we should do and
 plan how and when we will release that.

 What do you think?

 Pulling this off needs planing yes.

  4. The site's appearance is rated nearly 50 for 4, and 30+ for 3.
  About twenty percent want an overhaul, the same are against it, while
  50+ % think the appearance is not important, but only content.

I think if we work the content more a 'facelift' on the appearance is
needed, just to show the 'freshness', if you get what I mean.

 I guess that's because most of them read through an RSS feed reader.
 Page visits are pretty low anyway...

 Yeah that is a long standing wish of many people. It would be trivial
 with the current wordpress, but it would require some engineering and
 migrating which we lack manpower for...

 Henne, could you please try to have a rough estimate of the effort ?
 is it one day, one week, a month ???

 How hard it would be a by example a small team with 2 noobs, a you like, and 
 a darix like ?

[opensuse-marketing] Re: [NEWS SUGGESTION] Commandline Mondays

[Kostas Koudaras]

2014-05-22 10:04 GMT+03:00 Nenad Latinović ne...@latinovic.info:
 Hi guys. Here goes another 'noob friendly' suggestion, which could 
 subsequently help 'raising the bar' with newer linux users, or leisure users, 
 if you may.
 The idea is the following: I wrote commandline Monday, but it can be any day, 
 which is usually a slow day in the news section. On that day, I'd publish a 
 short article on a specific command, what it does, and use an example. It 
 could have quite a few benefits:
 1) A fun way to learn commandline
 2) Easier teaching and adoption of the commandline culture in the exclusively 
 GUI world
 3) 1 and 2 would ideally help in raising the bar with locating problems, 
 subsequently maybe help newer users like me file more quality bug reports 
 without having the developers and maintainers waste time issuing instructions 
 on how to gain more information on the bug, or the forum problem topic.

 It would be actually an 'as you go' learning experience for me also, as I 
 decided to start learning commandline, so it would be a great excuse for me 
 to keep at it.

 We could also add a 'conf file of the week' or something of the sort, to 
 subtly learn which files, log files and such usually appear with which 
 problems.

 What do you think of this idea? Feedback would be very generous on your part.
I really like the idea, the only thing is if this should be on news or
somewhere else...
No matter what I say it is a great idea and go for it.
Kostas


 P..S.: Could someone please publish the news article, It's been sitting in 
 review line for days now. It won't be exactly news if it's not published.

 You should be able to find it here:

 I guess it's this one: https://www.facebook.com/pages/openSUSE/45393742283


 then it would be good to do what you actually suggest - one page for
 everything.

 Even if it exists already it still needs people sharing stuff, maintaining
 it, filling it with life. Maybe you can help with that.

 Hey All,

 This is a small article, can you please review it

 openSUSE welcome Google Summer of Code 2014 participants

 Thanks to Google, openSUSE has an excellent number of slots and an
 equally excellent number of mentors and students for Google Summer of
 Code 2014. Througuout the summer, students participanting in this
 program will code for openSUSE and its sister organizations ownCloud,
 MATE and Zorp and help them move forward. The best part of the
 projects is that the students most of the code written will go
 upstream and will benefit openSUSE in general also. Along with this,
 we have an equally good range of projects that contribute to improve
 the existing openSUSE architecture.

 The list of successfull students are :

 1. Travel Support Program application - Karthik Senthil
 2. Playlist Functionality for ownCloud Music App -Volkan
 3. ownCloud Calendar Application in angularJS -Raghu Nayyar
 4. openSUSE GSOC ideas: Cool live flash -Zsolt Peter Basak
 5. Open Source Event Manager (OSEM): Refactor user management model -
   Stella Rouzi
 6. Open Source Event Manager (OSEM): Implemention Organizer Dashboard
 -cbruckmayer
 7. MATE: Port from deprecated GStreamer 0.10 -Michal Ratajsky
 8. Integrate Snapper Snapshot browsing into openSUSE Desktop tools -
  Oguz Kayral
 9. Implement an application-level LBaaS driver for Zorp -Péter Vörös
 10. Extend Git-Review to support BitBucket -xystushi
 11. Event Splash page for Visitors In Open Source Event Manager
 Application. -Gopesh Tulsyan

 Thanks Kostas. Will get to it (even though i'm on KDE now, but i've

Child you finally saw the light in the darkness of GUI's,  LOL
 Would it be OK if it did it in a VB? Don't want to install unnecessary

 take care of the infrastructure.

 Now we need to see who is doinng what and decide what kind of articles

 But do we need a wiki page to know who is doing what, at the best we
 can have one or 2 duplications,
 I had rather do it in a informal way first to figure out how things work out
I am cool with this, I just thought that you made something in the wiki already
Stathis efagra already made something informal, I will just say to him
to spread that and start working there if you like.
We set the deadline but when do you think we should release it? ...or
let's just make babysteps, have the whole thing ready and then decide?

 Hi everyone,

 the french openSUSE community is about to organize a hackaton in
 Paris, France, on 8/9 March of 2014. The event will happen in the
 Epitech engineering school, which has been eased thanks to the
 partnership between SUSE France and Epitech.

 People should work at least on open stack and if things go well, there
 should be people working with OBS, openSUSE ARM, GIS Softwares, SUSE
 Studio and potentially more.

Really cool

 That being said I have two questions :
 - how can the openSUSE marketing team help us in this challenge,
 particularly regarding train tickets ?

 This goes to travel support program, but don't expect that much, it's 
 happening in the same fiscal quarter than osc14
 Perhaps SUSE France has some travelling sponsor budget allowed ?
I disagree there are funds available for other events in the same
quarter afaik, it's just that it is not much and since this is the
only event you should definatelly apply.


 - Where can I advertise this event to the global community ? Do you
 have a prefered format ?
 create the article and push it to news@o.o team
+1
If you have something ready send me and I can publish it asap.
Also there are people who can tweet etc. through the official openSUSE
channels, I am not sure if I still can do that but there are people
around that can do that if you wish.


 Best wishes,

 Alexis.

[opensuse-marketing] Monthly news

[Kostas Koudaras]

Hi Marketing people,


A few weeks ago some of us talked about reviving a form of weekly
news. Of course most of us agreed to have something every month
instead of every week. After talking with a few community people about
it and how we could do that we came up with some ideas.


Some of the ideas are:

- Have a monthly instead of a weekly release.

- Have it both in electronic form as well as in a printable form.

- Have it published every second Monday of the Month

- Have articles that are written for (and why not exclusively) for Monthly news.

- Host monthly team reports

- Release in News page

- Have interviews of people around and inside openSUSE.

- Unify the output from all the communication channels into a single news place.


Most of the above ideas are not new and we surely need some more
before we proceed but the general idea is to have the first issue
released at March 10.

We also need some artwork done and a catchy title for it.

Have fun
Kostas Koudaras

Well, you are in :D
I would like everything to be open and talk about it here in the ML.
Maybe at some point make a meeting.
What are your ideas ?
Nikos is the guy that works with the infrastructure of the printed
version and afaik he is thinking on working with Scribus. About the
web Version we were thinking of publishing it on News somehow or
something else wordpress related, but still looking for this.
BTW is it possible to have an article from OBS every month? In my mind
I have to reach people in all corners of the openSUSE Project and have
them write articles or even how to's. Maybe even give simple lessons
of how to make packages... What do you think?
Have Fun

 Hello,
 I'd like to ask, if there is any ready made graphics for a roll up. I looked
 around on the github repo, but while I found some really nice material,
 there was nothing what could be directly put on a roll up (or at least I
 could not find it...).
 If you have anything, please send me a URL (or complete files off-list).
 Thanks, bye,

 Please look over it. There are a few meetings and other specific things in
 there that need to happen, some things are still open. The rooms are also
 appointed so if you want to make changes, note that the room configuration
 might make it hard/impossible to do so!

 Feedback and additions still welcome, how are the lists of tasks coming?

 Cheers,

 Brilliant !

 Find out a bit too much ambassador's term, or you mean have something achieved
 and great to send to L.A. and future near events?

 and I really think meeting SUSE's insider would be better on monday than in
 the end of the week. But yeah I know how much planning sucks anyway ...
 So if there's a way to move


 Saturday is missing :-)

Yeap we should do something on Saturday too :D
On Tuesday's Meeting for the talk about the Ambassador Program is
missing Richard's name :D

Once again we will Rock, I am so excited that we will meet once again :D

whatever it is possible to either give you the t-shirt(I guess we will
have some of those there) either to make arrangements to send you
some. It will be easy to recognize me, I will be that Greek guy

Thanks for your Support

2013/1/11 Peter Czanik pcza...@fang.fa.gau.hu:
 Hello,

 Yesterday we had the first openSUSE beer event here in Budapest. There were
 a couple of developers and users and as a surprise guest, even a senior
 manager from the local Novell/SuSE office joined us. It was a very nice and
 interesting evening, mostly getting known each other, but of course also
 talking about openSUSE.

 One of the topics we discussed was why the active part of the Hungarian
 openSUSE community is so small, especially as there were a lot more active
 people 5-6 years ago. At conferences and even at the beer event I'm the only
 one wearing an openSUSE T-shirt. It would be great, if we could have
 T-shirts to have a lot more visibility at events where we go.

 Question: is it possible to order a bunch of T-shirts, so the core of the
 Hungarian openSUSE community could wear it at different conferences and
 events? I think, about 15-20 T-shirts would cover most of the active people.
 We plan a release party right after 12.3 is released, and would be great if
 I could hand out the T-shirts at this event.
 I'll be at FOSDEM, so instead of using the post office, I could pick them up
 there and fly them to Hungary.

 Bye,
 CzP

Re: [opensuse-marketing] Missing Ambassador?

[Kostas Koudaras]

2012/8/7 James Mason jma...@suse.com:
 Hi all,

 Does anyone know Johan Cabrera
 ( http://en.opensuse.org/User:Johan_cabrera ) ?

 He's listed as an Ambassador for Florida, USA; I tried to email him to
 get some insight into the local users who may be at Summit, but the
 email bounced.

Not the first time this happened. I guess you should CC this mail to
the ambassador team or send it firstly there (anyway I am doing in now
:D)
This is only one of the reasons why we are reforming the ambassador
program nowdays. Let's hope that shortly after 'Ambassadors 2.0' (that
is only how I call it) will be releashed we will have not any more
unpleasant situations like that.

[opensuse-marketing] openSUSE Collaboration Summer Camp in Greece

[Kostas Koudaras]

Summer in Greece! Is the weather too hot for you to code or contribute
to your favorite FOSS project? It is time to get together one more
time in this year's openSUSE Collaboration Summer Camp !!!

So, ok, I’ll be there! And then what?

We will be together next to the sea to watch various workshops (do not
forget to bring your laptop!) And we will work on our favorite
projects!

When?

The weekend 20-22 of July 2012, at the heart of Summer.

Where?

In central Greece at Grand Platon Hotel ( www.grandplaton-hotel.gr )
at Olympiaki akti (at the beach of the city of Katerini).

Who?

The Greek openSUSE community organizes the second openSUSE
Collaboration Summer Camp and will take care for smooth flow of the
program, location and details of the event. Aimed at everyone involved
in the FOSS which can both participate and make their own workshop!

Why all that?

Because we love what we do, we are having fun contributing to FOSS and
we hate doing it alone in our rooms during Summer time. Besides
coding, translating and all other ‘boring stuff’ there will also be
plenty of sun and beach, a large swimming pool and plenty of beers -
all paid by you since we only sponsor the sun, the fun and all the
other free stuff...Those who want to participate, please contact us so
we can better organize the availability of the rooms!
We are looking forward to seeing you all!

For more information  registration form:

 It's about openStack on openSUSE which is available thanks to work by B1 and

 I wrote down a few pointers and links where you can get info for the article
 but otherwise - it is empty and you'll have to set the direction.
 http://news.opensuse.org/?p=13018preview=true

 I think it's best to make it a kind of big-ish announcement: openStack is
 availalbe for openSUSE, this is where to get it and how to use it (short)
 with links. And some history on where it came from (B1, SUSE becoming
 platinum partner of openStack, boosters worked on it, etc).

 Should be done in the next few days...

 Who's up for it?


I could read them by tommorow and return in a couple of days with something :-)
when you are saying:
maybe ask if:
- the boosters worked with the B1 ppl
- what the B1 ppl think of it
you mean shoot some questions to those guys by mail?
Manu if you have any other links I could read please shoot ;-)

  Should be done in the next few days...
 
  Who's up for it?
 

 I could read them by tommorow and return in a couple of days with something 
 :-)
 when you are saying:
 maybe ask if:
 - the boosters worked with the B1 ppl
 - what the B1 ppl think of it
 you mean shoot some questions to those guys by mail?
 Manu if you have any other links I could read please shoot ;-)

 It's worth mentioning also in the article that openSUSE now offers the
 most complete selection of cloud software packages compared to other
 major distros.  I recently learned this while talking to Robjo, who
 maintains opennebula.   Unfortunately, my IRC logging system is
 apparently broken so I can't copy/paste the conversation, but if you
 were logged in last week to -project channel, you'll see the
 conversation.  It's a nice ooh-factor that demonstrates how openSUSE
 is consistently about choice and not about forcing an agenda on our
 userbase.


I will try to find the log, in the meantime I saw some things on
OpenStack and OpenNebula and now I am reading about Eucalyptus and I
agree that all three worth mentioning and give some importance to the
part that openSUSE provides people with more than one choices on how
to get things done.

Re: [opensuse-marketing] An interesting exercise

[Kostas Koudaras]

2012/4/1 Manu Gupta manugu...@gmail.com:
 Hi All,

 I have an interesting exercise in mind. I am trying to work on android
 app, that will show various facts about openSUSE.

 Now what I need from you guys is various facts about openSUSE. I dont
 want something like openSUSE is the best but plain interesting facts
 and yes the fun part is no two facts should match :). If we can have
 50 facts ready, I will launch the app.


Cool :-)
Do you have in mind the already existing android apps for openSUSE?
Could you give more info or an example of what you want?
Maybe I could write some :-)

 I have 2 things about the interview

 1. The interview is absolutely great, very technical and gives a great
 insight about gtk accessibility options.
 2. No mention of openSUSE anywhere I am not sure if such an interview
 at openSUSE news as it shows no correlation to openSUSE.


Yeap there is no mention to openSUSE but I think that this is a noble
cause that needs to be promoted by everyone, although if there are any
objections let's talk this through.
Please let me know your opinion about this.

Re: [opensuse-marketing] Short Video about Installation (Italian)

[Kostas Koudaras]

2012/2/1 Alexjan Carraturo axjsl...@gmail.com:
 I have created a short video that show installation of openSUSE 12.1.

 The video (in Italian language) was made to show how is simple to do
 the setup of openSUSE on a PC that have already another SO installed.

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vs5RPHZAtdU

 I know that is not too much, but I'd like to have feedbacks to improve
 this type of work.

Hey Alexjan, this is great work, do not underestimate your work, this
is something that could really help the Local users, maybe you could
add the link of the video to
http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Marketing_materials on Screencasts,
you may create english subs for the video as well but this is up to
you :D

We also have a series of videos that GCI students made and now we are
wondering how we could gather all this in maybe one page so that
people could look for them more easy, watching a video is more fun
than reading documentation.

Not relevant to your current mail: Also you could go to
http://forums.opensuse.org/ and make an Italian Section there too, I
would really like to help you with that if you have the will to do it
and you need any help. I am aying that since you seem to make serius
work there so this might be your next step in order to create a strong
structured local community.
Also you can contact Hawake (http://en.opensuse.org/User:Hawake) and
Caig(http://it.opensuse.org/Utente:Caig) who are doing some great work
to the Italian wiki(http://it.opensuse.org/Panoramica_del_Progetto)
and tell them to join forces with you ;-)

 Thank
 Alexjan.

[opensuse-marketing] Re: [opensuse-ambassadors] openSUSE night in Milan: What type of event?

[Kostas Koudaras]

2012/1/27 Alexjan Carraturo axjsl...@gmail.com:
 Hi to all

 After the success of the fair in Cerea, we are invited to organize a
 openSUSE Night in Milan.

 The idea would be to present, in a famous lug of Milan, openSUSE.

 We're planning to make the first presentation of openSUSE, with one or
 two talks, then a QA space, and finally do installation party.

 Looking at the list of the types of events, I saw that this looks like
 a Launch Party, but, we are organizing that event for Feb. 25, maybe
 a little late for a Launch Party.

No it's never late for a launch or a release party ;-) but you can
name it install party as Jdd suggested :)


 What type of event I could use? Tips?

 Since the event in my city, and being a guest of this lug, I would
 not need any kind of budget, but could really help me Marketing
 material (Few promo DVDs, t-shirts, stickers, posters and the like).
 Can I request the material here
 (http://software.opensuse.org/promodvd) as usual?

 Thank you in advance
 Alexjan Carraturo

You should probably contact the Evergreen team and ask them if they
will continue supporting 11.3 and maybe write that down, this should
be interesting for openSUSE users

Re: [opensuse-marketing] mirall now available

[Kostas Koudaras]

2011/12/8 Klaas Freitag frei...@suse.de:
 Friends,

 AFAIK mirall, the ownCloud client, is now available in our update channel so
 every openSUSE user should easily be able to get it on her box.

 AFAIK you marketings have planned to make some fuzz around that, I already
 saw/wrote an article for/with Jos.

 What's the status of that? Are you guys still interested to push that?
 How? I certainly can do a developer blog post about it, but I am not sure if
 thats bold enough for you...

 regards,
 Klaas

I think we should promote that by writing an article on news, I find
this a very interesting for our users.
If you can start an article about the technical stuff I think I could
try and add some more to make it an 'appropriate' news article.
what do you think?

 Cool :)

 Even if you're not coming this year, I especially welcome advice and
 guidance from FOSDEM veterans. What worked in previous years?

 * Bring the Touchsmarts, people like to grope things.
 * Bring 12.1 DVDs, stickers and folders, people like to snatch things.
 * Bring Beer and T-Shirts, sell them for 1€ and give the proceeds to
   the university. They will love you. (Pascal knows whom to give it to)
 * Have 2 guys, you can rely on at any time, to be on the booth. People
   like to wander off into the awesome program. One minute it might seem
   that you have a gazillion people on the booth and the next one it's
   deserted because RMS speaks.
 * Try as hard as possible to avoid that people leave their shit on
   the booth. The corridors are narrow, the boths are small, there are
   more and more people each year. If they all leave their Jackets,
   laptops and bags on your booth there is no room to operate anymore.

 what do I need to know?

 * You get two tables and a couple of chairs in a windy corridor
 * It's friggn cold and drafty

[opensuse-marketing] Re: [opensuse-ambassadors] Translation of openSUSE posters

[Kostas Koudaras]

I will start something too in Greek, or find someone to do it since I
got a lot on my plate at that time.

2011/11/5 CarlosRibeiro carlosalberto@gmail.com:
 Jos,

 I will use this weekend to translate this materials to brazilian
 portugues. Next monday you'll have it in your inbox mail

 Heya all,

 I've just finished updating the posters we made last year at SCALE in
 the USA. They are ready for translation and I can then print a bunch in
 time for the openSUSE 12.1 release parties!

 Who's up for translating them? download the svg files at the link below,
 translate them (open in Inkscape, edit the text) and mail them back to
 me...

 I will try to get at least Spanish (in the USA and Brazil and Spain),
 Portugese (Brazil), Chinese (Taiwan/China) and a few European languages
 (German, French, more?) printed. Of course IF they are translated :D

 Find the posters here:
 https://github.com/openSUSE/artwork/tree/master/posters/openSUSE%20is%20cool%20posters

 The files:
 FlyerFINALVERSION-OBS-STUDIO-KIWI_11x17-light.svg
 FlyerFINALVERSION-AppInstaller-Desktop-connect_11x17-light.svg
 FlyerFINALVERSION-Tumbleweed_11x17-light.svg

 FlyerFINALVERSION-OBS-STUDIO-KIWI_11x17.svg
 FlyerFINALVERSION-AppInstaller-Desktop-connect_11x17.svg
 FlyerFINALVERSION-Tumbleweed_11x17.svg

 I made the light ones new but can't really decide if they look better or
 not. I DO know the light ones will be easier to print, the normal ones
 can be problematic in that regard due to the heavy use of black which
 makes the paper wet and soft... We will have to see with the printers
 which ones they can print.

 We do kind'a need to get this translated before Wednesday so we can
 start printing...

 Thanks in advance!


 Cheers,
 Jos

 I did minimal changes (Novell-SUSE) but that's it - and now it's too late

I am not sure but I think that translators had a talk about it a while ago...

 12.1 is stable, it for the masses, and that has the feel fo Turth

 Hey folks,

 One of the articles scheduled for post-Beta is an article about what
 people are saying about openSUSE 12.1 Beta.  To do this right, I'd like
 to enlist you all to do one of the following:

 1:  Send links to any articles reviewing Beta

 2.  Go out and ask people you know who are trying Beta what they think
 of it and get quotes from them.

 This will really help!

 Thanks folks!

 Guys,

 I need to know what we will be doing for both. I heard that some
 people might have already started planning stuff for SCALE. Since they
 reached out to me, I like to go again, but I before I step into
 anything I like to know what has been talked about.


 Chuck,

 There is no formal organizing going on at the moment for SCaLE.   The
 only things were that Manu was going to send out a notice to others a
 month ago to send in their papers, and at the last meeting on Thursday,
 SCaLE was included in a list mentioning upcoming events we want to
 attend.

 One thing I want to point out.  We spent a boatload of money going to
 SCaLE last year, and one of the reasons for that was to shore up support
 for openSUSE in Southern California.  When Jos and I initially planned
 the SCaLE budget, we viewed it as an investment and one that hopefully
 meant we would not have to continue shipping people to SCaLE and can
 rely on local ground support.   I'm glad to know now that we have 4
 people in the region who can support SCaLE and give openSUSE awesome
 recognition once again.  This is an improvement over the past several
 years when we continually shipped people to SCaLE.

 I would strongly encourage reaching out to these people, Tony Su already
 indicated he would go there, and asking them to organize the booth.
 This would keep our expenses to a minimum  (just put them up in a hotel
 since they all live at least 90 minutes drive away) and our investment
 would effectively have paid for itself.

 However, anyone and everyone is free to go as well.  But in terms of
 funding, if anyone requires it, will need to be approved through the
 Ambassador Travel Sponsorship program.  Granted this particular program
 needs to be ironed out a bit, but I guarantee you it will within the
 next few weeks.

Well the terms of funding are a bit stuck in who can get this funding
and in what terms, but my opinion is that Chuck and Tony (I don't know
who the other guys are) fill the requirments since they have proven to
the community and the ambassador program that they are hard working
men. So my proposal is, and that is only if Manu has no problem with
that, to get those guys the funding they need, so that this reason
won't delay their effords, so on my side they should make a budget and
send it to Jos.
 Because the Funding program in not over yet that does not mean in any
way that people who want to do something can't apply for it.

 Also, I have been reached out by North East Linux Fest for Apirl 7th.
 They want us there.  There going to be a lot of school going to like
 MIT, Havard, and others in that area.


 I would certainly hope to see some growth in the Northeast region.  We
 simply don't have strong support there.   In the previous NELF, I was
 informed that the attendance was expected to be rather low, and thus I
 couldn't see a justification for sending some folks there in terms of
 dollars.   However, it sounds like, from what you're saying, attendance
 is expected to grow this year, and thus it would make excellent sense to
 send some folks to NELF and shore up local support, thus creating an
 investment similar to what we did at SCaLE.  We're doing well on the
 west coast, we need more on the East coast now.  :-)

 Also, I am now on the board for the South East Linux Fest board as
 their community manager, I am going to be putting together a list of
 user group here in the US, I wanted to ask, what ever happen to the
 list we were working to send stuff too? I would like to add the groups
 to it. I like to do press kits for 12.1 to these groups, I am thinking
 that would be a great way for more people to use us. I will need
 someone there to help me, it going to be in Atlanta maybe will tell
 more later.

 Congratulations for your appointment to SELF board.  I know SELF will
 have a valued member on its board and one who is clearly dedicated and
 committed to this type of work.  It's people like you that make us
 confident that openSUSE growth will happen on the East Coast without a
 doubt!   :-)

 Thanks for your hard work Chuck!

 I just wanted to let you know about this ahead of time as some of you

 parties back a little bit.

 Stay tuned for the formal announcement and details to come soon.

 I think it's a good idea to release the betapizza party article which was

 sometime next week. Say Tuesday? Kostas, could you ask stella to send it to

ok will do that today

 Meanwhile, I wrote an article about getting your stuff in Factory which I'd

 1 for Marketing(Marketing Materials Review)
 1 for PR and Social Media (PR and Social Media Review)

 So in order for this to be a reality we need people to organize this.
  - Firstly we need people to volunteer themselves for be online on IRC
 for at least 12 hours as moderators for those days. In order for
 everybody around the Globe to attend we make the Collaboration days a
 24 hour Event. I am of course in for the first 12 hour stand  for
 ambassadors day.

 Sorry for the question: Which dates?  I'm very willing to participate,
 whether for the IRC event, or in other ways.  That  is, I'm willing in
 principle, depending on the dates.

I gave it some thought and my recommendation for the dates is:

Ambassadors Collaboration day (Ambassador Support Review) - 24/8
Starting at 7:00(UTC/GMT) ending at 25/8 at 7:00(UTC/GMT)
Marketing Collaboration Day (Marketing Materials Review)  - 1/9
Starting at 7:00(UTC/GMT) ending at 2/9 at 7:00(UTC/GMT)
PR and Social Media Collaboration day (PR and Social Media Review) -
8/9 Starting at 7:00(UTC/GMT) ending at 9/9 at 7:00(UTC/GMT)

It should last 24 hours so that everyone around the globe to have the
opportunity to participate.

We can have 2 of 3 people for every day in 12 hour or 8 hour duty,
that will be depended on the people who will apply for the job. My
recommendation is not to apply for more than one day as moderators.
 The moderators of each day need to make a common report for each day
with what the day succeed. Of course nobody says that you cannot blog
about it separately ;-)
Please apply only if you are 100% sure that you can do that. When we
will have all people for the Collaboration days we will split and work
as teams for each day so that it can be properly prepared.

In case that nobody has any objection on the dates we should write
some articles about it on the next days and spread it around, anyone
who can help on that please step up.

I am in for the Ambassadors day for the 1st shift either that is 12 or
8 hours, I can also write an article on news about that.

I think that should be all, please fell free to add anything so that
we will make this even better than the previous Collaboration days

 I don't think this is good since we will start preparing for the conference on
 the 8th and 9th,


Oh yeap, totally forgot about it, sorry

We could change it to 5/9, do you think this would be a better date?

[opensuse-marketing] Collaboration Days

[Kostas Koudaras]

Hi people
12.1 will be out on November and November is closer that you can
imagine when it comes to the amount of work that should be done by
then. So in order to reach out I propose to repeat Collaboration days.
We made great amount of work there and with great quality.

We had 3 collaboration days:
1 for ambassadors(Ambassador Support Review)
1 for Marketing(Marketing Materials Review)
1 for PR and Social Media (PR and Social Media Review)

So in order for this to be a reality we need people to organize this.
 - Firstly we need people to volunteer themselves for be online on IRC
for at least 12 hours as moderators for those days. In order for
everybody around the Globe to attend we make the Collaboration days a
24 hour Event. I am of course in for the first 12 hour stand  for
ambassadors day.
 - We need people to organize and create the wiki pages that we will
need about the collaboration days
 - We need all of you to participate on those days because as previous
Collaboration days proved, anybody can help no matter how experienced.

Last but not least, it is important to do that before the Marketing
Hackfest that is planned for 15th and 16th of September, so that we
could use the Collaboration days achievements there and plan a better
marketing campaign.

For those that are not familiar with this see the links bellow.

 Hello,

 Regarding the deadline, it's good to know when the event takes place for
 the budget.
 A question-note I have is this:

 In Greece we know the big events we'll apply. We don't know the exact
 day though. We discuss it at our first ambassadors meeting. So the
 person who will create the page where we can enter the event, have to
 make space for the month and not the exacd date of the month and also
 how many will attend to the booth or talk.

 What about smaller events that people invite us? An example here was the
 event we went a day before Christmas in Florina. We decided to go about
 a week before. So regarding the timelines you give us, we had to know
 that on October 1st.

 Regarding the type of the events or talks, I think more important is the
 booth staff because we talk to people about our project.

 Let's be realistic: We have limited money and thus won't be able to fund each
 and every event - and we need to find our way with the setup.

 We can reserve some money for ad-hoc events - but the money Jos currently has
 vanishes at the end of a fiscal quarter, so we cannot keep it for ever and
 thus prefer to spend everything instead of money vanishing...

Stathis this goes to you mainly, small events like that in Florina( it
cost us around 50 Euros each attendant) can be covered by us since we
do it for the fun of participation and for the road-trip ;-)
Those money I think should go to bigger events, not that I leave those
events out necessary, but if something is to be decided quick I prefer
consume my time at thinking on how I am going to do a good appearance
and have fun than to think about money. Either you can(have the time
and money) to do it, either you don't.

Anyway I wish that we have only 10-20 active (on events) ambassadors
because of the money and now that some money are available to see 153
really active ambassadors and I promise that I will pay all events I
will attend from my pocket, but I bet that the main reason is mostly
time.

Now it is better to think how to organize things at this point and
then we talk about details and exceptions. We all need to work harder
because we have a great project in our hands and our job is to show it
to the world.

That is for now
Sorry for my probably bad English but I was working the last 18 hours
and I am really tired

[opensuse-marketing] Re: [opensuse-ambassadors] Special Announcement - Ambassador Travel Funding

[Kostas Koudaras]

Well I have like 2.000 questions ;-)
I will start with a few that might answer many other questions.

1) When this program starts? If it already started we are a bit late
for the first deadline, should we arrange an ambassador meeting to
decide which events we will attend until the 31 of October?
2) Do we have a list of events that ambassadors MUST attend? We
probably need to create a list in the wiki with dates of future events
until May of 2012,right?
3) Priority is a great subject here, how do the team define who
ambassador has priority on going to events?
4) I suppose for an ambassador to attend on an event he/she should
apply for a talk about the community, right? Can ambassadors attend
events that won't be able to give a talk?
5) Timing is also another great subject, those who apply earlier for
an event have priority over others?
6) If we have to choose among 3 local events(that are cheaper) versus
1 global event, that have the same cost, what do we choose?
7) If one quarter we have fewer events and we don't spend the whole
budget can we use those money on the next quarter?
8) Are registration fee's included and is it possible for SUSE to give
ambassadors (if available) free access on events so that the whole
event will cost less?

1992 questions left for later ;-)


2011/7/28 Bryen M. Yunashko susero...@bryen.com:
 Dear awesome Ambassadors and Marketeers,

 We are very excited to announce a new program for our Ambassadors to be
 able to travel to important events in their regions and promote
 openSUSE.  Over the past few months, Jos and I lobbied and recently
 received approval from Attachmate to create this program.  Each quarter,
 the Ambassador Team will be allowed to reimburse up to $5,000 (USD) for
 transportation/hotel expenses.

 How it works:

 * At least one month prior to the start of each quarter, ambassadors
 discuss and make a proposal for expenses to events and other promotion
 opportunities globally.

 *  The Ambassadors will determine the long term event strategy; deciding
 which events should be supported with these funds. Jos and I will
 provide any advice or encouragement needed throughout the process.

 * Jos has final approval of any expenses.  Ambassadors will be
 reimbursed up to 80% of their personal expenses.

 * Each quarter is as follows:
 August 1 - October 31  (Proposal Deadline - July 1)
 November 1 - Jan 31 (Proposal Deadline - October 1)
 February 1 - April 30  (Proposal Deadline - Jan 1)
 May 1 - July 31 (Proposal Deadline - April 1)

 Why we are doing this?

 We have two purposes here:

 A)  Tto empower the Ambassador Team to strategically develop a plan of
 action and determine for itself where it can make the most successes.

 B) To develop a long-term strategy and schedule.  This will improve the
 flow of funding in a quick manner and also help us to determine what
 materials and other preparations are needed for the entire year.

 While this is a quarterly program, we encourage the Ambassadors to think
 long term (up to 1 year) and identify as many potential events globally.
 This will help us to better allocate our limited resources. (For
 example, we are already out of Promo DVDs currently.  Long-term planning
 would help us better anticipate our printing needs.)   It will be up to
 you to determine how best to discuss/document/propose actions.

 Thanks and feel free to ask any questions you may have!

 it's a sort of I'm a geecko video

 So we first need to know if you find this usefull?

 If so, we will need to have as many ambassadors as possible making
 videos (more on the technical points later)

 But we also need reviewer to check the videos (to prevent
 unappropriate contents). The best way should be to have a member
 check them... given as many langages as possible are wanted

 we need also OSC logos, posters, to make a beginning and an ending,
 as we need some sort of sound or music (free, of course) for them.

 we lso need a proposal for a short text, to be used as basis,
 variants being possible

 I send this to multimedia, ambassadors and marketting, but I think
 final discussion of how to make and store videos should be held on
 ambassador list and potential technicals around the hole video making
 on multimedia, so please post on the relevant list

 Awesome idea. Make a quick how-to on a wiki page and get an article to
 news.o.o (which I can help write if you want).


Ok I can make a how to immediately but I am wondering where in the
wiki to put it.
After that an article will be on the way :-)

 And how about ANY openSUSE person do this instead of 'only' the
 ambassadors?

I agree partially mostly because of an idea I just had. I propose to
take shots from Ambassadors to make a 2-3-4 minute video as an add and
then let's challenge all people with a contest to create a home video
calling people to the conference and give some kind of a prize(a Geeko
plush or something...) to the one that will have the more views on
YouTube by lets say 11 of September. Because of the contest people
maybe will try harder to promote their video shot. That way we can win
the promotion we want and the one who made the video a prize ;-).

 Then we put em on the openSUSE youtube channel and show them on the
 openSUSE website at random :D

 thanks

Just made a sample video from my mobile(http://youtu.be/iPB9_teC-4M)it
is only in Greek so...
I think it would be more fancy, instead of saying the same think once
in English and once in our Native language to insert Subtitles with
the English text.
What do you think about that?
Jdd is that doable?
Allan, yes we could do that we will just leave out word like 2011 and
Nuremberg(which I mention in my video)

Let me know what do you think

[opensuse-marketing] Re: [opensuse-ambassadors] Proposed Sessions for openSUSE Conference

[Kostas Koudaras]

2011/7/21 Bryen M. Yunashko susero...@bryen.com:
 Greetings folks on the Ambassadors, Artwork and Marketing Teams!

 As you know, the CFP for openSUSE Conference deadline is coming very
 close this weekend.  As part of the CFP Committee, I have reviewed
 proposed sessions and saw some missing stuff so far, which I think we
 should consider.  I have created four proposals tonight though I have
 not attached any moderators to them yet.  (I wanted to get them in
 before we miss the deadline.)

 BoF Proposals:

 openSUSE Ambassadors Discussion:
 A BoF to bring together our openSUSE Ambassadors and discuss strategies
 for the coming year.
 (Manu and Kostas, do you wish to lead this session?)

I proposed a few weeks ago a BoF which I will do with Manu with title:
Ambassador Program: Current status,potential changes and
improvements. I think it is very similar with the one you propose so
it think what you are talking about is covered.
;-)
If you think otherwise please let us know.

 Organizing our Artwork Repositories:
 A look at the current state of our openSUSE Artwork GIT repository and
 discussing ideas about ways to improve availability and access of
 artwork for everyone.
 (I propose one person from Marketing and one from Artwork to co-moderate
 this BoF.  Any volunteers?)

 Hacksession Proposals:

 Marketing Team - Multimedia Planning
 Let's storyboard some ideas for cool openSUSE videos that we can use at
 events and online.  In this hacksession, we will organize our thoughts
 and create basic storyboards for videos and podcasts
 (Several of us have had some excellent ideas over the years but we never
 moved forward on it.  Its time we came together and put those ideas to
 good use.   JDD, would you like to co-moderate this with me?)

 
 openSUSE 12.1 Artwork
 Review of artwork for 12.1 promotion and 12.1 Desktops
 (I'm not exactly sure what is needed here, but I put it in anyway.  Does
 anyone from Artwork Team wish to moderate this hacksession?)

 If any of you have ideas for other topics, *please* submit them soon.
 It is better for the CFP team to have many topics to review than too
 few.  And I know many of you have awesome ideas.  I see a few already
 from some of you!

 Thanks!

   My understanding is that A4 is the required alternative and requested

   be deleted because the width is a half inch shorter and the length is
   almost 2 inches shorter than what the existing layout calls for. The
   reason for the current size is to fit all the content.
 
  Please note that I mostly asked for A4 based on my (possible
  mis-)conception that in the EU and much of the rest of the world, US
  Letter paper might be harder to come by or print on. I simply do not know
  for sure if this is true or not. I checked a few online printshops in NL,
  they all only offered A4. I suspect that IF letter is possible, it'll be
  more expensive.
 
  If we shorten the text a bit, maybe an A4 version with the links added to
  one of the two text panels (or both) could be used. This means we remove
  the panel with the links (Get Connected) instead of the text ones. Ideas?
 
 
 
  For now, I'd say let's start with having a Brochure in Letter format. I
  will try and shorten the texts so we can have it translated in the future
  but the text for the english one is fine as it is.
 
  If the other marketeers agree, let's consider this thing final so we can
  print it in the USA!

 Hi all,

 Can I get some of your thoughts on this? Should I print 2000 of these in
 the USA and start writing a shorter text to be translated in Spanish,
 Portugese, German etc?

 Ok, if nobody answers, I'll just decide. Once Karl has made the changes
 suggested by Henne, we'll print 2000 doublesided flyers and 800 posters like
 the ones we had at Scale ('why is openSUSE cool').

Sorry For some reason I lost this e-mail :-(
For what is worth I agree, just send me the source file to translated
in Greek, although I am not sure if a translation would be a better
solution that the actual English text since the translation of cool in
Greek is a bit weird.
I still use the ones we had in Scale,though the colors fade out a bit,
people really attracted by it in the events we made.

 Should we remove the panel with links for the A4 version? Or one of the
 other two panels?

 Let's remove the one with links and put just an openSUSE link somewhere else.

 Here's a link to the current brochure if you want to have a look:

   Hi all,
  
   After a discussion a couple of weeks ago about what it is to be an
   openSUSE project Henne came up with the idea to interview the people
   who have started openSUSE projects about how they did that. I think
   it's a neath idea and I wonder if any of you would be interested in
   doing that?
  
   Cheers,
   Jos
 
  That's great idea. I would like to know how it started and what happened
  during that time.
  This way, all ambassadors will learn what to expect and how to promote
  the idea.
 
  Have a lot of fun

 Nice to have this story on wiki. Maybe Sascha, as founder, can help with
 the Medical side. Some contributors hyperlinks point nowhere.

 On the Education side, Jame Tremblay was the founder. The user page
 hyperlink points nowhere. Same for other contributors on listed.

 Let's ask Lars for Education, he can name others for sure ;)

So is anyone interested on doing that?
If not I am volunteering for an interview with Lars, all I need is Lars e-mail.

P.S. Andreas I know I still owe you an interview about Zeitfringe but
this is a difficult one and i am still working on that ;-)

Re: [opensuse-marketing] Marketing Team Meeting Today!

[Kostas Koudaras]

For some reason I got the e-mail now... :-(
Our Servers those days are behaving bad

2011/6/28 Bryen M. Yunashko susero...@bryen.com:
 Folks,

 Our apologies for this.  Apparently there's some problem with mailing
 lists and some mails did not go through.  I'm told the mailing list
 problems are now resolved.    I sent an email some days ago announcing
 the postponement of marketing team meeting from last week to today but
 that seems did not arrive properly and my original mail is still on my
 laptop which is still buried in my suitcase

 Today's meeting will take place in one hour from now in our usual place
 on #opensuse-marketing team.  Topics are as follows:  (As best as I can
 recall)

 1.  openSUSE Conference marketing campaign
 2.  openSUSE 12.1 marketing planning
 3.  News team
 4.  Ambassador Team

 Again, apologies for late re-send of this notice and I hope some of you
 will still be able to come to the meeting.

 Sincerely,
 Bryen M Yunashko
 openSUSE Marketing Team

 To elaborate a bit on what I'm looking for, it's mostly 'new, cool, small,
 not-promoted-enough technical stuff in openSUSE'. Wide scope, I know :D

 I don't know if it's onlmy openSUSE as it's a kernel feature, but the 2.6.39
 openSUSE KOTD kernel is able to run my GMA500 pseudo Intel video card
 (poulsbo) that is for a long time broken (no intel drivers).

 That makes my acer one netbook display 1366x768 pixels on a 11 screen,
 extremely neet (and the same as the competitor).

 It's a kernel feature, but I was not able to make it work my self compiling
 the kernel, when the openSUSE one work out of the box.

[opensuse-marketing] Re: writing about cool stuff BESIDES OBS and tumbleweed...

[Kostas Koudaras]

Hey, great idea
Don't forget about Evergreen
In this month's magazine 'Linux Inside' I wrote an article about
Evergreen and Tumbleweed
I think I could write something about Evergreen as an article for News
if you are interested and I could do that in a short notice.
 Also I now write about YaST, also we could write about KIWI, WebYaST,
that I can think for now.
On YaST we could write separate articles for separate YaST add ons,
such as the FTP server add-on.
I still owe the translation in Engish of my article about KIWI, but
this could take a while due to it's great length.
Also what about interviews from people of the projects? Not like the
openSUSE people ones but interviews in depth, analyzing and getting
more information than a wiki page can give.
That is for now
Kostas Koudaras

2011/6/7 Jos Poortvliet jpoortvl...@novell.com:
 I know, I know.

 The title must be weird. Do we do more than OBS and Tumbleweed?

 Actually, yes, we DO! Recent examples include us joining world IPv6 day, the
 kernel.opensuse.org page and there are a bunch of android apps too :D

 I would say it's worth pointing this out to people once in a while. AJ agreed
 but he doesn't like writing so tasked me to do it ;-)

 Now I need some other ideas besides what I mentioned - some cool stuff being
 done in openSUSE. Just fire ideas away! Anything goes :D

 Help in writing and/or reviewing would of course be appreciated... :D

 Ganesh (see below) is a learning platform for web sites

 it makes it easy to store courses and follow the work of students

 I tried Ganesha 6 or 7 years ago and at that time is was very rough,

 It could be used to hold an openSUSE learning system.

Re: Fwd: [opensuse-marketing] PDF posters

[Kostas Koudaras]

I will start working on them either today,either in 2-3 days,
I will soon get back at you ;-)
Thanks
Kostas

P.S. If all go well I will ask other non-English speaking ambassadors
to do the same in their native language

2011/5/22 Pieter De Decker pdedec...@gmail.com:
 The latest version of the posters and slides are now available in the
 opensuse-artwork repository under a CC 3.0 BY-NC-SA license. I tried
 to compress the material by tar'ing everything, but if you're gonna
 download all four packages it's still a 50MB+ download. That's because
 I wanted to use high-resolution artwork (where available) to allow for
 some scaling.

 https://gitorious.org/opensuse-artwork/opensuse-artwork/blobs/master/posters/pdf/posters.tar.gz
 https://gitorious.org/opensuse-artwork/opensuse-artwork/blobs/master/posters/src/posters-src.tar.gz
 https://gitorious.org/opensuse-artwork/opensuse-artwork/blobs/master/slides/slides.tar.gz
 https://gitorious.org/opensuse-artwork/opensuse-artwork/blobs/master/slides/slides-src.tar.gz

 Feel free to translate the material into your native language using
 Scribus 1.4.0rc1. If you're still having trouble with the files, let
 me know. I'll look into it when I have some free time, so it may take
 a while.

 Cheers,
 Pieter

 2011/5/21 Pieter De Decker pdedec...@gmail.com

 Alright... I have upconverted all Scribus files to v1.4.0rc1 files, 
 rewritten some text and collected all necessary fonts and color profiles for 
 each file. I have the poster and slide sources along with their exported 
 PDFs ready to go. If Jos would be so kind to provide me a Git account and a 
 folder in the artwork repository, I can upload them for everyone to use :)
 If I release the material under a Creative Commons 3.0 BY-NC-SA license, 
 will that be loose enough to allow everyone to create their local 
 translations and to use them to promote openSUSE?
 I should point out that the backgrounds on some of the posters/slides are 
 below the recommended minimum DPI, but I don't have the time to search for 
 other suitable background images right now. Also, the YaST logo that I used 
 is only 256x256 pixels, so this may produce less than satisfactory results 
 if printed. Does anyone know where I can find an SVG version of the YaST 
 logo?

 2011/4/26 Pieter De Decker pdedec...@gmail.com

 Hi all,

  I would like to put them in git*, how about you getting access so you
  can update them if/when you like?
 Yes, I'd like that! :-) I will fix the sources and add them to the
 repository for translation as soon as I have some time. That may take
 a couple of weeks, I'm afraid.

  The licensing IS a bit of an issue - it's really helpful if we are able
  to translate flyers etc and for that, artwork needs to be GPL like and
  come with sources... Any way we can convince you to release the source?
 I've already released the sources. The Box.net link must be somewhere
 on the mailing list, but I'll put the fixed sources in the Git repo
 when I have the time. As for the licensing: I've included a text file
 in the posters/slides ZIP that collects the licensing information, but
 I don't know if the material's licenses are compatible with the GPL
 license. Is there an intellectual property expert in the room?

  We don't have it translated due to some problems with the source files
 Are you unable to open them or does the source render incorrectly on
 your computer? I'll look into it when my work load quiets down.

[opensuse-marketing] Report:Fosscomm 2011 Patras

[Kostas Koudaras]

FOSSCOMM 2011 was held in Patras on the 7 to 8 May from Patras Linux
User Group (PLUG) and the Department of Computer Engineering 
Information Technology (Computer Laboratory / Computer Center),
University of Patras. The conference was very interesting with several
additional speeches, several parallel events (booths from communities
and projects, parallel talks, workshops) and live streaming.

The Greek openSUSE community has united to present this two-day
conference in Patras. There, we met people from other communities,
discussed and promoted openSUSE and FOSS.


The community participated at the conference with the following
presentations and parallel events:

Saturday, May 7,


 Presentation by Bruno Friedmann, for the openSUSE project and its future.

 Presentation by George Bratsos for the release of openSUSE 11.4 and
the new technologies and innovations brought by the distribution.

 Presentation by Kostas Koudaras who presented the Greek openSUSE
community and their actions, the project dealt with and the events it
has organized.

  Presentation by George Koutsikos, for the Enlightenment Project.

 Presentation by Athanasios Elias Rousinopoulos about a subproject of
openSUSE, the openSUSE Medical, which contains tools used by the
branch of medicine.

 Presentation by Efstathios Iossifidis about the Greek Gnome community
and the release of Gnome 3 and the new technologies and innovations.

 Lighting Talks by members of the Greek openSUSE community about
sub-projects with which we participate, but also things that we do all
together.
Introducing YaST (Efstathios Agrapidis),
Add / Remove software in openSUSE (Athanasios - Elias Rousinopoulos),
Weekly News - The Greek way (Efstathios Agrapidis),
Evergreen Project (George Tsiapaliokas),
Tumbleweed Project (George Bratsos),
KDE Akokandi (Antonis Tsiapaliokas),
Guidelines for mariners, using openSUSE Community tools (Efstathios Iosifidis).


Sunday, May 8,


 Presentation by Efstathios Agrapidis for the revolutionary OBS
platform that solves packaging problems.

 Presentation by Efstathios Iossifidis on how we can create an
openSUSE distribution with SUSE Studio.

 Workshop by Efstathios Agrapidis to create .deb and .rpm packages with OBS.


The openSUSE community booth was one of the largest in the
organization and except the dvds, posters,, flyers, cheat-sheets etc.
we co-hosted the booth of the Greek community of Gnome, the
Enlightenment Project and the amazing people of other communities who
were there to assist and promote their favorite project and FOSS in
general.


On Saturday evening the openSUSE community had a Release party for the
distribution of openSUSE 11.4 at the hotel where he resided. The party
achieved its purpose because, apart from the cake we ate and the beer
we drunk, we came closer to people from other communities such as the
Ubuntu, Slackware, Gentoo, FreeBSD and OS-arena. At the end of the
night Red Hat people visited our party, with whom we shared the same
roof (hotel). :P

The workshop ended with a farewell message from the organizers of
Fosscomm whom we thank for the wonderful organization even though the
misfortunes of the second day which left us without power and wifi
internet access for the most part.

More photos can be found in our group on facebook.

Although If you point some issues I promise to find some people write them ;-)

Re: [opensuse-marketing] Fwd: [opensuse-project] Enlightment Derivative from openSUSE

[Kostas Koudaras]

Guys I think I told you before
Here in Greece we have 2 Enlightenment developers, one of which is an
openSUSE ambassador and they are working on E17(Enlightenment) for
some time, they want E17 as a 5th GUI on openSUSE.
I have an E17 on my netbook too trying to help them.
Manu maybe we should try connect your people working on E 17 with my
people, what do you think about it?
E17 is a Great GUI and AFAIK lighter than LXDE which is currently not
very active on developing.
Let me know about it.

 Well I would like a couple of more, but certainly we will have to dig

 Why I have said this there are a very few distributions which are

 here looks forward to enlightment.. Plus there are a few people who
 are actually looking forward for this

 Then go for it ;)

 I would suggest that you point people in printing material to some

 that your content is discoverable in the wiki instead of re-introducing
 the mess we had in the old one. It makes little sense to invent tons and
 tons of URLs one has to remember to find content.

 For instance, how am I to get to the GNOME3 page if there are not links

 Hi James,

 Thanks for the quick response on IRC. I had just gotten IRC set up on
 the netbook when you appeared.

 The information you gave makes the following even more appropriate.


 Here's what I sent to the Fest Organizers yesterday...

  In several volunteer assignment categories, there is a question about
 which distro to use. The time that students could spend researching
 distros and debating their merits could be put to better use
 elsewhere.

 In a message to his student assistants, Jakob wrote:
 I personally like OpenSUSE and Gnome desktop, but it's your call.

 On Monday, I am going to instruct students to use OpenSUSE/Gnome.
 (Fred, this doesn't apply to the Tutorium. That's your call.)

 Rationale:
 * BTC students are not generally knowledgeable about distros and their
 relative advantages to Jane Citizen, average user.
 * OpenSUSE/Gnome is easy to use, solid and visually appealing. (Gak,
 what about KDE? Try not to think about it B^)
 * OpenSUSE is a sponsor.
 * OpenSUSE is an exhibitor.
 * Several senior level speakers represent OpenSUSE.
 * James Mason provides local presence, support and advocacy.
 * The installation media is well-designed and attractive.
 * OpenSUSE has superb online references.
 * Installation, updates, package installation are simple, and well
 supported by the online references.
 * All of these reflect well on LFNW.

 March 10 or something even more general, like openSUSE 11.4 artwork,

 link.

 Also I'll take this chance to ask again if anyone has a link to the
 11.4 promoDVD or normal DVD label. I seriously need to get some
 printed asap.

 Javier has created a nice openSUSE 11.4 poster, you can find it here:
 http://gitorious.org/opensuse-artwork/opensuse-
 artwork/trees/master/posters

 more artwork can be found in that git repository, of course.

 There is a template for 11.4 presentations, I can't find it in Git
 however :(

 It is also not on http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Presentations - can
 whoever HAS the template put a link there please?

After the weekend I will do that along with some other presentations
people sent me

Re: [opensuse-ambassadors] Re: [opensuse-marketing] openSUSE Marketing Materials and openSUSE:Presentations pages

[Kostas Koudaras]

2011/4/7 José Oramas M. jose.orama...@gmail.com:
 Hi Kostas,

 Here is the file of the presentation I gave on FLISOL2010.
 The presentation is in spanish, the title (translated in english) is Ten
 Reasons that make openSUSE a distribution suitable for everyone
 I think that even when this presentation was in the time of 11.2/11.3
 transition, it mentions some openSUSE related resources like suse Studio or
 OBS. Additionally, I think that it can be easily updated for current and
 future releases of openSUSE.

 BTW, I have the video of this presentation, If you want it I can provide it
 too.

 Cheers,

 José

Hi Jose
 thank you for the presentation, I will upload that on Monday due to a
pile of work I have these days and A conference I have and I will be
out for 3 days.
Yes I would like to send me the video too and I am pretty sure I will
find its place on the wiki ;-)
You won some Hugs from me :-)
Have fun
Kostas

Re: [opensuse-marketing] Contributor Recognition - how can we do it?

[Kostas Koudaras]

 I Don't know If I understand right(since it is a bg e-mail ;-) )
but I think you are asking from us to tell you our opinion about if we
think that you should send some items to contributors of any kind and
what item(s) should that be. Also if you come up with something you
are asking for people to support you spread them.
 If that is the case I tell you that in Greece and in countries around
Greece I can help. Now my vote on items is an iContribute t-shirt and
a Flash-drive with an openSUSE 11.4 .iso inside (instead of a box) so
that contributors can easily install our favorite distribution to
friends. This will reduce the postage and packaging cost a lot.
If I did not understand right just ignore my e-mail ;-)
Kostas

2011/4/6 Andreas Jaeger a...@novell.com:
 The board in our project meeting asked me to discuss with you and come up
 with an idea on how to recognize contributors to openSUSE (say thanks to
 them), so here's my email that I sent initially to the board and let's
 discuss what we can and want to do.

 Basically, I seek a fair process and one that's easy to implement and
 execute. ;)

 I've spend quite some time thinking about this and discussing it and
 therefore this email is a bit longer and list several options and ideas.

 I already send the contributors on our existing list an email telling them
 that we're not going to send them anything for now - but seek alternatives.
 I got quite some positive feedback and have appended it at the end in
 anonymous form.

 Btw. especially the marketing team is one of the teams that  I guess never
 made it on the list of getting a box - and I consider this really unfair -
 so let's find a fair process (or decide there is none and leave it). So,
 don't ask my why you never before heard about it - this is especially a
 reason to rethink the whole program and start it new from scratch and
 that's why I need your combined wisdom,

 Andreas

 Background
 

 In the past, Novell had a list of contributors to openSUSE. Novell
 send them one openSUSE box product as thank you. That list has grown
 over the last 15 years and includes upstream authors of some projects,
 beta testers and translators.

 Right now that list contains around 300+ entries. Looking at the list of
 contributors, I see that it is a pretty unfair selection of folks. There're
 people in it, that haven't done anything for openSUSE 11.4 and there are
 people missing.

 So, this whole concept of who gets a Thank you needs a reevaluation.

 On top of that, we have sent out openSUSE Boxes in the past. With
 openSUSE 11.3, this was a joint present by open-SLX and Novell, before
 it was Novell only.

 The price of the box has increased (official selling price from 59 to
 69 EU but we get them far cheaper) - and the shipment of a box world
 wide is a logistics nightmare with doing the right thing to get them
 through customs in a cheap way - and then shipment costs a lot as
 well.

 Additionally, the collection of the email addresses is an error prone
 and time consuming process.

 So, summing up the three different points, we're not going to send
 contributor boxes out with openSUSE 11.4.

 As usual, there's a but. I know some people look forward to them - and I
 would  love to send out an individual Thank you to those who actually
 contributed.

 But this needs:
 * a light weight process
 * people that help with it
 * and an idea on what to do

 Once we have that, I can go to my management (who urged me to seek
 alternatives  with you - so Novell is interested in sponsoring, we just
 need a good way!) and ask for sponsorship money.

 Goals
 =

 Novell has done in the past the Contributor boxes as a way to say
 thanks to contributors. openSUSE as community project depends on
 contributors and this present was also an incentive for them.

 Our goal is to thank openSUSE contributors for their participation in
 openSUSE at the time of a distribution release. We want to recognize
 contribution in a fair and objective way.

 Where does contribution happen in openSUSE?
 * bug reports
 * fixing bugs
 * packaging
 * development
 * system administration
 * user help in forums/mailing lists/IRC
 * marketing
 * translation
 * ...

 Question: Do we want to recognize all kind of contributions or only
 specific ones?  Some of that you can easily be scriptable - others
 not, and that's the part that will lead to another members committee
 and discussions. But only giving it a subset won't work really either
 - so, what do we want?

Well, one of his main problems are fonts(imagine that) and he does not
mention any good aspect of the distribution or anything he liked at
it, I believe the writer belongs to those people who disliked 11.4
before he even starts to test it so...
Users who migrate from other distributions to openSUSE 11.4 seem not
to really feel the same way ;-) and those are more important to us...

Those people should make you a list with those who contributed the

 Exactly this is one of the challenges: This process does not scale and will
 become unfair, we will forget some people this way that contribute great work
 - and we will for sure forgot to ask some teams to nominate their team members
 ;-(


 That's why Jos proposed to use as list all openSUSE members - it's self-
 nominating, it's easy to collect etc...

Yeap but on the other hand there are people that are not members(yet
?!?) and contributed and members that are not active anymore and they
did not contributed on 11.4.
Oh god, it is really difficult to decide whom to leave in and out.

Come on people, Feedback...

Re: [opensuse-marketing] setting up a mailing list

[Kostas Koudaras]

What I am going to say have much love inside them because you know you
are all my friends.
We have ambassadors in 47 countries which means that we have users of
openSUSE at 47 countries at least so making 47 different local mailing
lists would be great,if those ML's had traffic
If they don't those are practically useless.

Now I will tell you what I made so that you see some things a bit more clear.
I asked a local mailing list when I thought I could work with it. I
asked a second one about translation when it became clear we needed
one.
The first question is if you really need one. By need I mean post
there almost daily and have members communicate and help each other
and inform people. Having a ML just to have 2-3 mails per month and in
a language that you can do it in another ML, the way I see it, and
think about it, might cause some problems to the local community you
are making the list to support.Consider that you must have people to
support all levels of users(at least most of them).

Also think about all that confusing things Bryen said ;-) and how many
local ML can confuse users.

Having many lists make the Global community lose important feedback
and honestly that is the reason we tell Greek people if they have a
problem they can explain in English, write at opensuse-project and not
in opensuse-el since others users can benefit in various ways with
answers they will get.

Now about what Chuck said about a local event,I think that even if you
had an opensuse-USA list, states are so big that this problem would
not be solved.
Also don't underestimate the help a Greek or a French or a Belorussian
can give you in a local event in the states,more ideas are never bad.
No one tells you how to run things, bottom line you always do what you
want,but having more ideas if you have a well-structured way of
thinking can never be harmful.
I am not against local ML, on the contrary I am a big supporter but
only if think it can really change things to the better and only if
you really think that the existing lists don't serve you they
desirable way.
Bottom line on that, if you think a ML can help your local communities
go for it but have in mind that it can also weaken a local community
if it does not work well, I know a couple of examples.
I would suggest to start where we started and that is an IRC channel,
announce it on the project ML and then talk with people there if you
really need a ML.
If you all agree to that go for it.

That is my opinion and I certainly don't want to play the smart-ass here :-)
Think about it

Kostas

 Now let me ask another question.  If we create country ML's, does it
 have to be focused on ambassadors only?  If, for example, we create an
 Australian list, wouldn't it make more sense to create one list for all

 opensuse-ambassadors-au)

 This was my intention. A mailing list for users, not just Ambassadors.
 We are all active in one way or another.

 Does it justify the additional overhead placed on our beloved mail admin, 
 Henne (even if he says he doesn't care?)

 I didnt realize that administering a list would be a lot of hassle
 (I've never done it).
 We could start a Google or Yahoo group and manage it ourselves.

 Alternatively I guess I could keep a list of contacts and ask people
 individually if it's ok to CC them whenever we want to ask if someone
 wants media, is going to an event and so on. It's hardly efficient,
 though.

 Can you elaborate on what you expect from the Boosters? I would like

 The q for the boosters is mostly: does this make sense on connect.o.o? I
 know the NL team already has a nice page on connect but there might be
 room for improvement ;-)

 The page on connect needs to be a bit more configurable, OR should
 somehow have wiki integration... I can't help but feel the overlap
 between wiki userpages and teampages and what connect does. And the
 forums too, aaah, if only we had 50 master hackers and could integrate
 it all :D

 Meanwhile, I'll try and play with the page, see if it could be better
 than a wiki page... Check out the best I could do:
 https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/groups/12548/opensuse-nl/

 Who do I ask for a NL mailinglist so I can get our 16 members to join?

You ask the one and only Henne to do that ;-)

 It's cute but is clearly derivative of the openSUSE Geeko logo, which
 we are not permitted to change.

 confer with the team on any outstanding stuff that needs to be clarified
 before we send you the final list with ample time to meet your deadline.

 Thanks for giving us the heads-up on this.

 More soon.

 Bryen
