sir iam hitesh kumar B.Tech second year computer science and engineering. sir we want to setup a opensolaris user group. Proposal for NIT HAMIRPUR OpenSolaris User Group Project
Purpose: To drive awareness and adoption of OpenSolaris in the the vicinity of NIT , in IN NIT HAMIRPUR, HIMACHAL PRADESH,INDIA,177005 Project Description: The purpose of this project is to spread OpenSolaris awareness within the student and professional computing community in the area around NIT. We perceive that a significant number in this community will be interested in learning more about OpenSolaris and related technologies. Our ultimate goal is to foster OpenSolaris adoption in labs and student projects, and improve campus support for OpenSolaris and related distributions primarily through education and mutual support. The project will archive such contributions as relevant student projects, presentations, documentation, code, and other material to its project space on the OpenSolaris site. Project Needs: This project requires project space on OpenSolaris.org site. The project also requires a mailing list. Related Projects: We plan to closely monitor the activities of nearby OSUGs. Proposed activities: We plan to initiate workshops and user group meetings in our area, with a focus on promoting the competitive advantages of using an OpenSolaris distribution for research, development, and teaching. Stage 1 of this will be to gather membership and further support from the university and community. Stage 2 will be active development of promotional activities, drawing both upon local experience and materials already produced by the OpenSolaris community. Further activities will be determined as demand and our community grow.
