The huge glass front of the Allhands Area facing Maxfeldstrasse wants to shine in Geeko-Shape.

Prior art:

  • An older geeko-head is already above the entrance, but the color is fading.

  • A larger one was was done in Thessaloniki

How about the largest possible one, now and here? Other locations to join in? Marketing, would you sponsor this?

I'd like to give an intro workshop session, on how we did the prior art.

Looking for hackers with the skills:

      How about using something more recognizable for normal people? Like a Tux and a nice sentence about freedom. Something that normal people that go by can relate to.

      Maybe we can also mod the Neon-Lights (Leuchtreklame) at the peak of Maxtorhof? It says 'SUSE LINUX' -- 'A Novell Company'.
      The second part is no longer true, and should no longer be illumnated.

    Kudos aka openSUSE Recognition Platform by lkocman

    Description

    Relevant blog post at news-o-o

    I started the Kudos application shortly after Leap 16.0 to create a simple, friendly way to recognize people for their work and contributions to openSUSE. There’s so much more to our community than just submitting requests in OBS or gitea we have translations (not only in Weblate), wiki edits, forum and social media moderation, infrastructure maintenance, booth participation, talks, manual testing, openQA test suites, and more!

    Goals

    • Kudos under github.com/openSUSE/kudos with build previews aka netlify

    • Have a kudos.opensuse.org instance running in production

    • Build an easy-to-contribute recognition platform for the openSUSE communit a place where everyone can send and receive appreciation for their work, across all areas of contribution.

    • In the future, we could even explore reward options such as vouchers for t-shirts or other community swag, small tokens of appreciation to make recognition more tangible.

    Is SUSE Trending? Popularity and Developer Sentiment Insight Using Native AI Capabilities by terezacerna

    Description

    This project aims to explore the popularity and developer sentiment around SUSE and its technologies compared to Red Hat and their technologies. Using publicly available data sources, I will analyze search trends, developer preferences, repository activity, and media presence. The final outcome will be an interactive Power BI dashboard that provides insights into how SUSE is perceived and discussed across the web and among developers.

    Goals

    1. Assess the popularity of SUSE products and brand compared to Red Hat using Google Trends.
    2. Analyze developer satisfaction and usage trends from the Stack Overflow Developer Survey.
    3. Use the GitHub API to compare SUSE and Red Hat repositories in terms of stars, forks, contributors, and issue activity.
    4. Perform sentiment analysis on GitHub issue comments to measure community tone and engagement using built-in Copilot capabilities.
    5. Perform sentiment analysis on Reddit comments related to SUSE technologies using built-in Copilot capabilities.
    6. Use Gnews.io to track and compare the volume of news articles mentioning SUSE and Red Hat technologies.
    7. Test the integration of Copilot (AI) within Power BI for enhanced data analysis and visualization.
    8. Deliver a comprehensive Power BI report summarizing findings and insights.
    9. Test the full potential of Power BI, including its AI features and native language Q&A.
