Hey all - Sorry for the extra noise, but it seems that some of the folks on the list who are getting the digest format of the list emails have NOT been receiving the announce emails. So - for the moment, I have disabled the digest feature so I can resend. For those who have already replied, thanks. For those yet to reply, please do! :) Cheers! Nathan. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Melbourne Solaris / OpenSolaris Users Group - Call to Meeting - 18:00, Wednesday July the 16th.
