GNOME foundation exposure in BSD Mag?
Hi. As a regular contributor to the BSD Magazine I was proposed to put a half-page of advertisement free of charge in one of my articles (the ad does not need to be commercial). I was wondering if there was any interested from the Foundation to use this half-page to have some exposure... and if so who should I contact? Also let me know if this is not the right place to ask :-) Thanks! -- Antoine ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

new member, introduction
Hi. I've just been accepted as a GNOME Foundation member so I'll introduce myself in a few words. First, I'm very happy to be part of the gang :-) I'm from Paris, France. I've been an OpenBSD developer for 5 years now and I've been working on porting GNOME to this OS for the last 3 years, along with another fellow foundation member: Jasper Lievisse Adriaanse. Part of my day job is to support several hundred users running GNOME on OpenBSD for big corporations around the globe. Besides packaging, my GNOME work has been mostly about portability (aka ifdef dancing) or implementing missing functions for OpenBSD (e.g. glib credentials). I do hope in the future to be able to make wider contributions. Anyway, it's nice to be here. Thanks a lot to Matthias Clasen, Colin Walters, Dan Winship, Ryan Lortie, Cosimo Cecchi ... for the great help so far. -- Antoine ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list

Ohh.. nice! Do you also blog about that support? Always nice to see such things on planet gnome. (hint hint :P ) Well I don't blog, but I did write a small article about our usage of OpenBSD as an enterprise Desktop which contains some info about our use of GNOME (disclaimer: this is not a GNOME centric article, but since you asked for a bit more info ;-)). Anyway, you can see it on the OpenBSD Journal at http://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=articlesid=20110420080633 and I also wrote an extended version of it for the BSD Magazine 2011 June issue. -- Antoine ___ foundation-list mailing list foundation-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
