OpenSolaris 2008.05 Opens in China
Nice to see OpenSolaris 2008.05 already moving in China. Two blogs from Sun's Qingye John Jiang: OpenSolaris 2008.05 in Retrospect (see Chinese version here) and Photos from the Installfest (in Chinese and English). If you are familiar with the OpenSolaris activities in China, you know
that it has been an utterly amazing year there -- especially on
universities. But now that Indiana is out there as a product, I have a
feeling that the China OpenSolaris community is going to actually
increase its growth rate. Also, the OpenSolaris community in China is
now directly interacting with the community in the U.S., Europe, and
India and people all over the are noticing this development. A quote
from John's blog: "20 years ago, there were less than 50 universities
in China that had a
computer science department, while this number exceeds 800 in 2008."
