I stopped working on the FoG videos here [1] because the FoG site was
going to be redone with space for a video player. Maybe these videos
are better on this page?

About GNOME, Support GNOME

2011-03-21 Thread Allan Day
Hi all,

I've been working on the content for the new gnome.org site recently.
There are a couple of pages that I would appreciate feedback on: About
GNOME [1] and Support GNOME [2]. Both are early drafts.

About About GNOME: it's a new version of an existing page [3]. I wanted
it to be a statement of values and identity. There are phrases in there
that I would like to reuse in other marketing materials, such as the 3.0
release notes and press release.

About Support GNOME: we don't currently have this, but it seems pretty
essential to me. I'm sure there are plenty of items that I've missed.
Tell me what!

Best,

Allan

New GNOME.Asia Summit website launched

2011-03-21 Thread Frederic Muller

Dear all,

I've been told I should post more about the stuff we're doing for 
GNOME.Asia Summit here so here a humble attempt.


We have pushed the updated website last night at 3am (luckily, since we 
had no Internet the whole day today) and everyone can view it at 
http://2011.gnome.asia .


The work has been made possible thanks to the acquisition of 2 regional 
sponsors (regional as in Asian based) covering the commercial template 
(which we have slightly adapted) and the shiny brand new VPS (the site 
was previously hosted by one of the member of the GNOME.Asia team).


All in all the preparation has been rather succesful from sponsors 
support to speakers attending. I'd like to thank everyone for making the 
trip to Bangalore for the GNOME 3.0 hackfest and the conference and the 
support from everyone we've contacted as well (some who can't make it).


Of course we'll blog in more details very soon but in the meantime we 
thought we could share the news here. If you spot any typo or browser 
compatibility issue (the trucks @ the bottom don't work in chrome - 
known issue) please do let us know.


Thanks to help us promote the event as well.

Fred

Re: Call for Summer of Code ideas

2011-03-21 Thread Emily Chen
Hi Vincent,

I click on below link, but see a message below:

*We have temporarily disabled the creation of new requests and invites in
preparation of the launch of the new UI for Melange later this week.*

*Requests made before this date can still be accepted and processed, but
will be deleted when the new UI is launched.*

*If you have questions about this, please ask in #melange on freenode, or
send an email to our mailing list at melange-...@googlegroups.com.*

So, we will wait for the new UI ?

BTW, I have already add my idea on the wiki.
