Postit Art Uber-Geeko at All-Hands-Area NBG
a project by jnweiger
Updated over 5 years ago. 6 hacker ♥️.

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.

      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.

    Digital art wallpapers for openSUSE Leap and Tumbleweed by lkocman

    Description

    We've enrolled set of new wallpapers to both Leap 16 and Tumbleweed as part of https://news.opensuse.org/2024/10/26/leap-tw-get-makeovers/

    We've previewed digital art wallpapers which were not part of the initial drop. I'd like to spend time on hackweek to finialize my current Taipei (mountains) and Mauritius digital art wallpapers.

    Goals

    Finalize existing two digital art wallpapers for Leap and Tumbleweed https://github.com/openSUSE/branding/issues/155 Make them available as part of leap16 dir in https://github.com/openSUSE/wallpapers and update (This makes is available to Tumbleweed users as well). Update https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:common:Factory/wallpapers-openSUSE-extra && Leap:16.0 && Factory.

    New openSUSE-welcome by lkocman

    Project Description

    Let's revisit our existing openSUSE welcome app.

    My goal was to show Leap 16 in a new coat. Welcome app adds to the first time use experience. We've recently added donation button to our existing welcome.

    Some things that I recently wanted to address were EOL and possibly upgrade notification.

    I've already done some experiments with mint welcome app, but not sure if it's better than the existing one.

    There is also a PR to rework existing app https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-welcome/pull/36 (this should be considered as an option too)

    Goal for this Hackweek

    New welcome app, possibly with EOL notification for Leap.

    1) Welcome application(s) with (rebrand changes) maintained under github.com/openSUSE

    2) Application is submitted to openSUSE:Factory && openSUSE:Leap:16.0

    3) Updated needles in openQA (probably post hackweek)
