We have already 3 presentation on our svn server:
http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/press-media/presentations/
Although, it would be nice if other people would upload the previous
presentations as well.
Please keep the svn server the default storage so that we can track
the versions, etc.
It's easy to provide a download link so that you can provide a direct
link on a website (simply use the we "ViewVC" webinterface from
http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/ and use the related "download"
link).
We also need a press kit for ReactOS 0.3.0 which we can send to
various press before the 0.3.0 release.
http://svn.reactos.org/svn/reactos/trunk/press-media/
I am collecting and writing some an generic ReactOS 0.3.0 article and
further information about ReactOS, facts, etc.
Would be nice if some could help me with that. If you have ReactOS
articles, flyers, screenshots, etc. on your harddisc please share the
data (upload to svn server if necessary ask a dev).
Additionally we are still waiting for some website frontpage text
content proposals, see for more information:
http://www.reactos.org/archives/public/ros-dev/2006-May/thread.html#8295
As a standard default format I want to suggest basic HTML!
(no header, no advanced html tags, simply the below explained tags)
Use "h1" to "h6" as heading:
e.g. <h1>headline</h1>
Use "p" as paragraph:
e.g. <p>this is a sample paragraph</p>
Use "br" as line brack within a paragraph:
e.g. <p>this is a <br> sample paragraph</p>
Use "b" as bold, "i" as italic and "u" as underline:
e.g. <p><b>this</b> <i>is</i> a <i><u>sample
paragraph</u></i></p>
The biggest advantage is that this format is universal, you can write
and format it with everything (notepad, vi, wordpad, dreamweaver,
frontpage, etc.) and additionally you can open it with even more apps
(Word, OpenOffice and hundreds more.
Besides, no transformation/konvert process is needed. You can copy&
paste it in our Wiki ( http://www.reactos.org/wiki/ ), on our main
Website (RosCMS), in Word/Writer/AbiWord/etc.
To generate a PDF or similar, simply open it with Word/Writer/etc. and
use a plugin/inbuild function.
To provide a word, open document, etc. file format simply open (with
the related app) the html file re-save it with the requested format.
So, in my opinion there is no excuse for not using basic html (no
header, no advanced html tags, simply the above explained tags).
Just use the above explained html tags (and provide additional formats
if necessary) ;-)
For images use JPEG (80-90% quality) or PNG (depends on the file-size
and usage).

2006/8/1, Murphy, Ged (Bolton) <MurphyG(a)cmpbatteries.co.uk>uk>:
I have a few large presentations to give on ReactOS in September, and as a
group we don't have any previous presentations stored. Although not a weekly
event, a few of us do give presentations from time to time, which means we
are probably going through the same process of compiling a presentation from
scratch.
So I was wondering if anyone was interested in putting our heads together
and compiling a default presentation which we can use.
This first default presentation should cover topics such as what ROS is and
what it's goals are, and then move onto a description of the system,
finalising with a short demonstration.
As ROS grows, requests for us to give these sort of things will obviously
grow too, including more detailed discussions on ROS internals. Therefore,
as more specialised presentations are given, we could store these too,
eventually offering a nice collection of presentations which we can pull out
when a need arises.
So, any volunteers?
Ged.
