Organize your own

It is definitely not too late to organize your own release party - just find a nice cafe or an office and invite people! You can invite them below, add you party to the wiki, ask some friends & family and tweet & facebook it on the openSUSE pages! It’ll be fun, we guarantee.

Giving a presentation

Note that we have presentations ready to go for you! You can find more information and downloads on this page.

Getting cool stuff™

It’s always nice to have some things to give away at a release party. The openSUSE marketing team has plenty of cool stuff like stickers, flyers, DVD’s and t-shirts we can send to you! You could do a little lottery or give away some things to long-time local openSUSE contributors and the DVD’s and flyers you can give to people to hand out to their friends and family.

If you want to organize a release party and get stuff, add your party to the wiki page and order the materials via this website. Note clearly in the description that you want stuff for a release party so we prioritize your request!!!

Count on at least 2 weeks shipping and handling time in Europe and the USA, 3-4 weeks in the rest of the world.

Have a lot of fun!

We’ve said it before and we’ll keep saying it: the most important thing is to have a lot of fun!

We are doing awesome stuff, and we should celebrate that sometimes!
