Hey I want to start the next Newsletter early so it can be a little more relaxed. The next release will be the 1. April. I really need someone to *interview*, just drop me a mail and I will send you a few questions. This can be anyone from the community that has some sort of CentOS install. And then I want to introduce a new section called DeskShot where users can show off their workplaces.

Hey We have now published the sixth version of the Newsletter and I think it is time to ask YOU ( the reader ) what we can improve. The current trend is away from really technical details more to a light read and entertaining stuff. Is this a good way to go. Or should we focus more on the technical side again*. Or is the balance right? What do you want to read about? What sections do you want?

Hey The last "Newsletter survey" found that many people are interested in how CentOS is used and what people do with it, I would like to invite anyone who has some spare time or has something to share to write a little article about how they are using CentOS. I suppose interesting stuff would be how many machines, how you manage them, what programs you use, stuff that has happened and

Hey Looking at the Fedora ML there is some commotion about a Press Kit [1] they are constructing. I am thinking about doing something like this for CentOS. Now comes my question, what do people think should belong in such a kit. Do you think this is needed?

>From Karan's blog: A few of us are going to be getting together for drinks on the Tuesday 29th Oct 2009, everyone is welcome to come along. I'll get there for about 18:15hrs and plan on being around till about 20:00 - Depending on how many people are around and what the feeling is - we might nip around to Ragam ( mostly authentic South Indian food ), a few doors down. There will be a

Hey So the Newsletter is finally pretty much finished. Could everybody please just read through it again and make some adjustments. Further how are the translations getting on? Unfortunately I either speak Chinese or Spanish so could I get a heads up on status? Further I am looking into a Newsletter meeting hopefully using VOIP, everybody ok with that? Next message will be the release :)

Hello I was just asked what the logo means and I had to admit that I really had no idea, as it was chosen way before my time. Can someone please enlighten me about the logo.

Ralph, When you have a free moment, please edit the wiki front page and adjust the second box with the header: "Planet CentOS / Newsletter" so that the latter part of the text reads: ". . . and the occasional CentOS Pulse newsletter." In pseudo-code: sed 's/monthly/occasional/' Alan.

Hello, I have just finished my Spanish translation of the last Newsletter. As I have no edit rights to the proper zone, I have written it into my own personal page http://wiki.centos.org/EduardoGrosclaude. Please some elder member of the familiy snip it off from there and hang it where it belongs. :) I have not involved myself in prior proofreading, so this may be a bit off. May I slip in a small

Hi, Will CentOS be present at the "Solutions Linux" fair in Paris ? Other question. I'm currently re-reading "The Definitive Guide to CentOS". The book's introduction mentions 10 million CentOS users worldwide. Wow! I wouldn't have expected that much. How do you get this figure? By the number of downloads? Cheers, Niki

Hi, Is there any tutorial/implementation cloud on CentOS? Or anyone with experience like to share? Regards and thanks wL

Dropbox has an RPM for Fedora Core 9 (x86). I am running CentOS 5.4 on my Desktop, which I believe is based on Fedora Core 6. Are the libraries Fedora Core 9 uses substantially different than those CentOS 5.4 uses? If Dropbox had an SRPM available, I would Download that and Rebuild, but I'm sure it is Proprietary and they won't release an SRPM to me. TIA! Lanny
