Monday October 22, 2007 The PSOSUG: Reaching the OpenSolaris community one person at a time
I just got home from the first meeting of the Puget Sound OpenSolaris User Group. Attendance was a bit lighter than expected. Only one other person showed up.
That isn't great for the OpenSolaris movement, but it was OK for me. I am still working on getting comfortable speaking in front of a crowd and one of the reasons that I am leading the PSOSUG is for experience speaking in front of crowds. But sometimes I think that I am not quite ready yet. Making the presentation to just one person was more like a conversation and easier for me to pull off. I can make the presentation to a larger crowd next time.
And I make get that chance sooner rather than later. Earlier in the day, I exchanged e-mail with someone at the Puget Sound Network User Group about giving an "Intro to OpenSolaris" presentation at one of their meetings.
In the meantime, I need to get ready for the next PSOSUG meeting in three months. At the request of my one attendee at tonight's meeting, the topic will be something about ZFS.
