Hi,
now I am able to breath again after Cebit.....
BTW: I am also able/willing to give an interview.
Short BIO/Affiliation:
I am working for a German government-owned research institute (Fraunhofer FOKUS)
that has no commercial interest in OpenSolaris.
I am working with SunOS since 23 years (in fact I worked on the first Sun that
came to Europe). Before I started to work for FOKUS, I was working at
H.Berthold AG - a phototypesetting company - and was involved with driver,
filesystem and application development for SunOS.
I am a long time OpenSource supporter and I am still publishing a big
collection
of OpenSource software.
I was in the OpenSolaris pilot since day one (September 2004).
I started the first OpenSolaris based distribution (SchilliX) and I am
interested in the emancipation of OpenSolaris to make it self-hosting
(allowing OpenSolaris to be compiled on OpenSolaris).
I brought up the idea of a "OpenSolaris constitution" and an OpenSolaris
"steering commitee" in November 2004 already. My goal for OpenSolaris is
that there should be a community driven development. My goal for the OGB is
that the OGB should act as a mediator that helps to arbitrate between different
groups inside the OpenSolaris community as well as between the OpenSolaris
community and the Sun management.
Here is an older profile from the pre-OpenSolaris time:
