Behdad:
While at that, to incorporate the idea that many (most?) people just check out the photos and read their captions when browsing an annual report, I was thinking that maybe we can do a photostrip (four small photos/shots in a row) for each distro/device, with a two/three line caption.
Sun Ray is an interesting device that supports GNOME, and probably hasn't been featured in this way before. While not a small device in the sense of a PDA, it is a novel thin client and has many issues similar to other small devices (such as dealing with network latency issues). Over the years, I'm aware of a number of performance tweaks that have gone into GNOME as a result of getting GNOME working on Sun Ray. For FOSDEM last year the Sun Ray team branded some units with the KDE logo. Perhaps they could be talked into doing a GNOME one as well? Of course, there is also the Nokia units which use GNOME, and the One Laptop Per Child computer. Brian
This begs the question, what GNOME-based devices officially launched in '08? --d On Wed, 2008-12-03 at 15:13 +0000, Lucas Rocha wrote:Hi Stormy, 2008/12/3 Stormy Peters <stormy gnome org>:I definitely think we should put it in the annual report.Agree. Not sure it should be a full article about it. Maybe I good way to include it is in the now called "2008 in Distributions" article (could be renamed to something more general) which will be written by Davyd (cc'ing him now). --lucasrOn Mon, Nov 24, 2008 at 9:32 AM, Dave Neary <dneary gnome org> wrote:Hi, Sriram Ramkrishna wrote:This is kind of cool. Although I find it strange that nobody responded to this. I've not been following my GNOME mail due to school.. otherwise I would have.Indeed - it's very cool, and I have referred to this on a number of occasions as a very cool example of the GNOME platform in use in a vertical application - mostly on GNOME Mobile. I think we should also get a story from them, and put it either in the GNOME Journal or in the annual report. Or both!
