(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

It seems that a lot of things are happening on IRC and the Wiki. I think it's a good idea to keep the people here informed too:

And thanks guys for have done so much

Friday 14 October onward for 1 week Puppy promotion week

Ideas on promoting Puppy welcome

Thanks, Puppian, and cheers to that new initiative, Lobster.

FYI, Puppian has been using the Wiki as you would write an HTML page, a feature supported by Wikka, like this mini how-to. The last link he put above is one of his page maps of the Wiki.

FYI, too, Lobster is our best-qualified Public Relations Officer, though nobody remembered the PRO post during the Sept 30 meeting at IRC. He works great at it, though

Oh that is what PRO is . . .

I though it involved standing on street corners offering a good time to penguins. Think I will stick to my role as official cructacean.

I also think Lobster is doing a great job.
Can I make a nomination?

Sure Puppian. I nominated myself Public Relations Officer. Not only did I nominate myself. I also voted myself in.


Once we are in we will do some proper electing but for now acting is the same as doing. I am looking for a deputy PRO - in Hong Kong - you are nominated Puppian - any objections? Carried . . . congratulations.

Ah democracy - who needs it . . .

Thanks Lobster

Since for now acting is the same as doing, I'll be volunteering for documentation as well

Here are the efforts I have made and will continue to make:

1. Puppy link in my E-mail sig (I participate in several dozen lists across a broad variety of topics, some of them have over 1,000 members).

2. Repeatedly recommend Puppy any time a recommendation is requested for a preferred Linux distro on a discussion list.

3. Recommend to developers of task-specific Linux apps that they consider linking their app to Puppy (at least one, an accounting app, has joined the Puppy forum).

4. Put a link to Puppy on my Web page.

5. Recommend Puppy to friends -- and yes, I'd love a CD label design and a recommended printer to go with it! Can that label be formatted for full size CD's, round mini-CD's, and "credit card mini-CD's, please?

6. I'd like to convert our church to Puppy but haven't found a good church management Linux app to go with it. I plan to also include wireless access as part of the whole church deployment.
