Hope all had a great New Year in the OpenSolaris community, this year has
prospects of being a great years for us, and I hope we can continue to
bring good content to the community. We can all help each other with
sharing the information better.

I will not be opening the call-in phone, since we will be broadcasting
over ustream.tv instead. I do not see a reason to use the toll free
call-in as I am charged for the usage, and I think we're better off with
ustream.tv. If you really have no other means and do want to call-in on
the toll free number, let me know and I'll start it, otherwise let's forge
foward and move to the inet. This also allows everyone to join in all
countries, with an internet connection.

We are working out some of the rough edges, but hope to leverage more
video this year, and please provide feedback in the chat area. One of the
nice things about the chat is that we can do that while the presentation
is going on. Please offer your comments and questions, we can pass them on
to the speaker, and collaborate together online while the meeting is going
on.

This months SVOSUG will be a live demonstration and discussion of the
Indiana preview 1 installation, configuration and upgrade. Indiana is a
live CD and repository model that allows a machine to be easily installed
while also providing a user profile that is more familiar to Linux users.

The presentation will be given by James Hughes, Fellow and VP of Sun
Microsystems. Currently James is the CTO of the Solaris Operating System.
He has developed products, standards and published papers in the areas of
Storage, Networking, Security and Cryptography. He is formerly with
StorageTek, Network Systems and Control Data Corp, and has over 32 years
in the computer industry. For more information see:
