Do-No-Evil Saturday – Part I: Quiet Week for the OpenSUSE Project
Marcus Rueckert from the OpenSUSE project had a page published about him this week.
This week we travel back to the main center of the openSUSE development, Nürnberg, to meet Marcus ‘darix’ Rueckert – openSUSE packager, and openSUSE Build Service content administrator among other stuff.
Francis Giannaros released and announced the weekly newsletter, as usual:

Have a lot of fun!
DownloadSquad did a bit of a publicity piece that involved OpenSUSE live CDs. It was in touch with Zonker recently, as well.
We know how it is. You like to hack. You like to develop software — or maybe you just like to watch developing software coming together (there are stranger hobbies). You’ve been known to play with alpha software. Yes, yes, you truly live on the edge.

Still not quite ready to test? You haven’t too long to wait. OpenSUSE 11.0 is scheduled for public release on June 19 of this year.
Here is a press release about openSUSE 10.3 training.
VTC.com and trainer Bobby Rogers have produced a tutorial on openSUSE 10.3 with over six hours of step-by-step training on Novell’s latest update of the popular Linux distribution. If you’re just getting started with Linux, openSUSE is a great way to begin, and Rogers will take you through everything you need to know. OpenSUSE is a scalable operating system that can be used on anything from a home-use computer to a workstation environment or even as a dedicated network server.
As Francis admitted, this has been a quiet week for OpenSUSE. █
