I am very happy to announce the

First SDU OpenSolaris User Group meeting!
April 26th
18:00-?
Seminarrum @ MIP


This first meeting will be an install-party/meet everybody, so spread the word! The purpose of this SDU OSUG is for technically interested/skilled students, Danish and international, to meet and experiment with the worlds most advanced operating system!

It will not be lectures. It will be a group of students with common interests and hopefully a common goal at some point (a collaborative project perhaps). It will at first be a group of people exploring the features within OpenSolaris. And it will be an opportunity for you to meet people with the same interests as you!
I will also stress that it will be a user group. This means that I am in charge of organizing the meetings etc. but its main focus is what you, the users, want to do. Should we have bi-weekly meetings or monthly meetings, should we look more into ZFS or Zones for the next meeting, should we start up a shared project to give something back to the OpenSolaris community or see how Real-Time Java runs on OpenSolaris... These are things we decide together as a community!

As this will be an installfest, bring your laptop along! If you have an available partition, that would be great - if not, maybe we can install it in a virtual machine. I am bringing both a laptop to install it in a virtual machine as well as a regular machine which will be dual booting with Windows.

The posters hasn't arrived yet, which is why you aren't seeing it on campus yet. I expect it to arrive in the beginning of next week, but until then, you can have a look at it here.

If you aren't sure where the "seminarrum" is, I put an arrow on the campus map:

I am really excited about this and I hope a lot of you show up! If possible, send me an e-mail to let me know that you'll be there - if you forget to do that, show up anyway :)

If in doubt, come and join us and see if it is something for you! There will be a few pizza slices and drinks, some Sun stuff, NetBeans cd's, OpenSolaris DVDs and (hopefully) a lot of students who are interested in joining a community for people interested in exploring future technologies!
