Unfortunatly I can't be there. Now a direct question, what subject concerning openSUSE could you hold a soeech about? Some ideas: openSUSE from a non-employee point of view what is different since openSUSE ... I think it is very important to have non-SUSE speakers to show that it is openSUSE and not SUSE. If no subject can be found, perhaps the introduction of what openSUSE is can be done by a SUSE person and an openSUSE person. e.g. the first introduction "Introduction to the openSUSE project (michl, skh)" can be held by one SUSE and one non-SUSE person. This to show people there is a real difference between SUSE and openSUSE. an example how this might work: Hello, my name is skh and I work for SUSE since .... -Hello, my name is XXX and I do NOT for for SUSE, I am one of the many people behind openSUSE ... [introduction to openSUSE and how it has become what it is, followed by where it can and/or should go] Advantages: It would show people right from the start that this is about the community Guest speaker does not need to find his own subject It is just an idea. It does not exclude other openSUSE speakers to hold speeches on different subjects. e.g. 'maintaining a SUSE repository' or 'my first SUSE' or whatever. So everybody, look at http://en.opensuse.org/Events and see when an event is in your neighbourhood and volonteer to hold a speech. Please put a contactadress on that page at the top as to where openSUSE people can submit their contribution. Now it is just : Novell will be there. Also somebody that is not SUSE behind the desk can be something to be considerd. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit. Sie ist das Kostbarste, was wir haben, denn es ist unwiederbringliche Lebenszeit.
