that's good.

Will "OpenSolaris Developer Summit" be the title of your event? Reason
of my question: I was a little bit puzzled that I saw people at e.g. Sun 
Tech Days wearing a bag with "OpenSolaris Developer *Conference 2007*". 
which turned out to be IIRC the first incarnation of Sun's Indiana/OpenSolaris 
summit  and not GUUG's (ours) "OpenSolaris Developer Conference 2007".

Not referring to copyright issues of the brand OpenSolaris but I would 
appreciate if we could avoid this confusion in the future. So from my
standpoint it would be great if the organizers at least stcik to the
term "Summit" in all communication, also marketing, and avoid the
term "Conference".

Otherwise a not clear distinction will hurt the both of us. For GUUG 
-- being the first 2007 -- we cannot just change the name of our 
conference, also since this years event we -- together with 
CZOSUG -- are in the middle of our call for papers (if somebody w/
ambitions to talk in Prague reads this: it closes in ~5 weeks).


Best / Sch?ne Gr??e,

        Dirk
