Well if you want your voice to be heard and believe that openSUSE would be so much cooler if only they would add or change something, now is your chance. There is an ideas page for openSUSE 11.1. There are already several ideas up there and I’m sure they are looking for some refinement and new ideas there.
This is the perfect time to do it as they are gearing up for openSUSE 11.1 alphas.
openSUSE 11.1 Gnome ideas (These are for the Gnome desktop)
This is from Andreas. THANKS!!! So come one, come all and help make openSUSE 11.1 a great release. There is no time like the present. Jump in early and grab that first alpha on July 24!
——– Announcement ——–
With openSUSE 11.0 out the door, it’s time to start thinking about openSUSE 11.1. The public release of openSUSE 11.1 is scheduled for December 18, 2008, six months after the release of openSUSE 11.0.
The full schedule for the release cycle is as follows:
This is, of course, a tentative schedule. Any critical or show-stopping bugs may delay betas and release candidates.
Major areas of interest in this release include:
Want to get involved? The start of a release cycle is a great time to get involved in openSUSE development. See the How to Participate page on the openSUSE wiki for details.
See the full 11.1 roadmap on the openSUSE wiki for more details and updates.
Note that Coolo and Michl are on vacation until the end of next week, so let’s start the discussion on features once they are back on the opensuse-factory mailing list,

Its that time of month again where we crazy opensuse fans get together. So for those that don’t know where we meet,
its at the Applebee’s in Sandy, UT @ 7pm.
This month we are going to try and do something a little more than just hang out. We want to look at OBS a little and talk about improving banter and giver. All three of these are awesome projects. So, kudos to those that have put them together.
Many of you know, but for those that don’t I was hired back on as a full time employee. Its been about a month since I started as the build guy for the mono-a11y team. For those that don’t know what a11y is, its accessibility. The 11 referring to the 11 letters between the letters a and y. The wiki link belong explains a lot about the mono-a11y stuff, but quickly the stuff we are doing is making all winforms stuff accessibility on Linux. One of the advantages, I think, is that we are helping out in other a11y project and improving accessibility in general on Linux. So if you have problems with the mono a11y packages, you know who to complain to. Not a whole lot to say right now, but here are some links.
Mono:Accessibility – This is our main wiki ‘landing’ page
openSUSE:Accessibility – This is the new ‘landing’ page for openSUSE accessibility stuff
mono-a11y packages – For those of you that are feeling brave. Currently there isn’t the olive package and a small problem with on of the other packages, so give it a day or two for it to be fixed, I hope
