1 MONTH EXTENSION FOR ACADEMIC LOGIN
Hello everybody,
After many user and institutional requests, we are extending the Academic Login activation period for a month for all ~okeanos alpha users. That is from August 11, 2013 to September 11, 2013.
It seems that as of today, almost every Greek Academic and Research Institution has enabled support for ~okeanos, so all alpha users should be able to enable the new Academic Login method on their Profile page.
So, if you want to guarantee your transition to beta, please proceed with enabling Academic Login, now.
Thank you,

NEW OPENSUSE IMAGE!
Hello everybody,
As you may have noticed, a new Image has appeared under System Images. And yes, it is openSUSE! Many of our users had asked if we could provide an official openSUSE image, so there you have it!
~okeanos now supports openSUSE all the way, which means there are also official packages of the kamaki command-line client and the snf-image-creator tool for the ~okeanos advanced users.
So, go ahead. Take them for a spin and see how it goes.
Enjoy,

But before we go there, the first thing we need to do is take care of the loyal users that have stayed with us since alpha and prepare a smooth transition to beta for them.
So, if you are an ... read moreposted by July 11, 2013, 12:18 p.m., filed under all , news , spotlight , ~okeanos

ALPHA PHASE ENDS SUCCESSFULLY
Hello everybody,
We are very pleased to announce that today we are closing up the ~okeanos alpha phase. This means we will not be activating any more users at this point, as we will be getting ready for the official ~okeanos public beta, which will open up ~okeanos to the whole Greek academic and research community.
We are very happy that the ~okeanos alpha ends successfully. Additionally, we are content, since demand more than exceeded what we initially expected and had originally planned for.
