OGB Elections - Week One Overview
The first week of voting in the OpenSolaris Governing Board Elections is over, and right now less than 20% of voters have voted, so there's still plenty of opportunity to investigate candidates. Personally I have found it very helpful indeed to speak to the eleven candidates who have so far agreed to be interviewed. For your convenience, I've built the following list of the nein published during the first week. Still awaiting editing are interviews by Michelle Olson and Shawn Walker, expect those soon.
All these podcasts can also be found on iTunes by those of you using Windows or Macs.

LiveMink OGB Special: John McLaughlin

He's not been involved with the OpenSolaris community much, but today's candidate interview is with someone who has a big influence on the Solaris market by publication of System News. I've not met him before and so enjoyed the introduction. Turns out he has an extensive and practical background in both Solaris and user groups.
This interview is with John McLaughlin, who joined me by VoIP from Florida. Listen on!

I see there is a version of Adobe's proprietary Flash Player for Solaris. They don't have support for x64 yet so I still can't use it but at least this is progress.
