Hi open source community, As we prepare for the third anniversary for opensource.com this Friday, January 25, many of you know we like to celebrate the open source community. We'll be announcing a new feature on the website for listing events such as open source conferences, seminars, meetings, webinars, and more. If you are part of a Linux User Group or similar, you should submit your meeting to the calendar. Running an open source event? Submit that too.
Here's the deal. Before we launch, we'd like to have some events populated in the calendar. Which means we need your help. I know many of you will just want to see the calendar and provide feedback, and we appreciate that. But we really need to test out the submission process--with legit data (no testing data please, we've done plenty of that already). The default calendar listing shows a calendar with up to five events per day. To submit an event 1) Log in with your user account: http://opensource.com/user/login?destination=resources%2Fconferences-and-events-monthly 2) Complete the event form: http://opensource.com/node/add/event 3) Submit the completed form Expected results: You should get a preview of your event with a notice that it's been submitted for review. You'll also get an email. An admin will get notified and review your event. Upon approval, your event will be listed in both the calendar view and the alphabetical listing (or Rolodex). You will get an email letting you know when your event has been approved. Logged in users will also be awarded 10 points. If you have any questions or want to provide feedback, let's keep things on the list in case other folks have similar questions or feedback. Thanks for you help, Jason Hibbets _______________________________________________ Sign-up for our weekly newsletter: http://opensource.com/email-newsletter Osdc-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/osdc-list
