openSUSE domain policy

Like other trademark questions domain registration for geographic openSUSE domains/local communities is handled by the board and will be covered by SUSE. DNS will be handled by the heroes, a ticket to get that going will be opened by the requestee themself.

AI: Gerald to handle the financial stuff.
AI: Gerald to add the process on the wiki for future reference.

openSUSE Twitter handle

Gerald points out that twitter.com/openSUSE is still named "openSUSE Linux" which we may want to change as openSUSE is much more than just Linux.

AI: Vinz to contact Doug about it.

Preparation of oSLO board time slot

The newer board members were informed by longer active ones how board Q&As went at past openSUSE conferences. The board wants to hear about things the community is interested in.

AI: Vinz to send out an email to project mailing list.

Postponed due to Marina's absence.

openSUSE + LibreOffice conference update

Postponed due to Marina's absence.
