Hey all!
Hope y'all enjoyed Andre and I manning up and doing VDI from scratch
last month. We did, and it was rewarding to demonstrate real software
working without smoke and mirrors (Or powerpoint!).
This months is ALL OpenSolaris all the time. We'll be hitting you with a
number of short sharp discussions on what's happening in Solaris land,
and some of the new stuff that is out there. See below for topics/speakers.
Please respond in the positive OR negative ASAP so Pizza and Drinks can
be planned. :)
Where?
Level 7, 476 St Kilda Road, Melbourne,
When?
Wednesday November the 18th, 2009 at 18:00 for general
discussion.
Speakers start at 18:30 sharp, with Pizza arriving somewhere around
20:00ish.
Speakers / Topics will be:
- Gavin Maltby: What's been removed recently, and will you miss it?
There are a whole raft of pending EOF plans too...
- Alan Chalmers: Boomer Audio. what is it, why do you care, and
is Solaris audio better for it?

own stuff
- Open Slot, depending on how long Gavin thinks he'll take with
the above.

can plan for seating / pizza / drinks!**
To anyone who meets with or talks to folks interested in Solaris: Please
let everyone know about the meeting, the time and the date. We would
love to continue to continue to grow the group.
A note on access: The Lifts in the building and entrance to Level 7
automatically lock early in the evening, so access will be provided by
Sun folks on-site. A sign will also be placed close to the ground floor
lifts with a contact number, should you arrive after the start of the
meeting.
If you are interested in Solaris, doing interesting things with, or on
Solaris, we want YOU!
