Hey everyone!

With the plans for a face to face meeting in early December, I thought
I would run a few options by everyone. I have noticed that there are
no events planned for the openSUSE 11.2 release in the Atlanta area.

So, there's a few things we could do:

1) face to face meeting - as planned, a good chance for everyone to
get to know one another

2) release party - like the face to face meeting, only with some CDs,
laptops, and a bigger focus on openSUSE

3) install fest - held usually in a large room, where people can get
to work on installing and troubleshooting their Linux installations
and hang out with others in the Linux community

Of interesting note, Joe Brockmeier, Community Manager for the
openSUSE project, has told me that depending on the date, he would
like to get some swag and head on down to the event. This could be a
great opportunity to get to know some folks in the openSUSE community.

Let me know what y'all think!

Thanks,

Jon

Have you tried SUSE Studio? Need to create a Live CD, an app you want
to package and distribute , or create your own linux distro. Give SUSE
Studio a try.

I checked with Aaron who said that he wasn't aware of any openSUSE
events in the works with ALE. I remember you mentioned working with
him so I assumed that the event had not pulled through.

I'm all for an earlier event, so as soon as you know the details,
please send out a notice. Obviously nothing has been set in stone yet
for a meeting in December, so changing plans will not be a problem.
;)

Thanks!

Jon

Hey, the only reason I reply back so quick is that I been working on this hard, remember I am the Georgia openSUSE Ambassador. I have already reached out to Aaron back at the being of Octocber was told there as a meeting November 19th, which in between traveling, working, and family. I been promoting the hell of openSUSE. I am already started burning the DVD. So please check with me, if you need swag let me know, Joe will send me stuff. If not then it looks like I am not doing my job. I take the Ambassdorship very serious, even though I don't get pay.

I have sent a couple of e-mails to Aaron were I am waiting for answer, if not then lets see about us putting something together for December. Once we get I will post it on the openSUSE site, by the way, have you sign up on the site as member? Doesn't get you much but them more people will see there are more of us GA.

I have no objections to any of the suggestions.
