OpenSolaris Events Calendar created

Posted in OpenSolaris, OpenSource, Solaris & OpenSolaris on March 31st, 2008 by Michal Bielicki

To have a fixed place for Opensolaris related events, events we as a community participate, user group meetings and potential events for the community to participate in, I created a calendar in the advocacy community. Everybody is welcome to send me updates to cypromis at opensolaris dot org. If you would like to participate in keeping the calendars up to date, please send me your gmail details and I will add you to the calendars.
I am also working on a speaker index and helpers index page on the genunix wiki that will help speakers, helpers and event organisers to find each others. If you have any input for that, want to be listed or have any questions, let me know

Community voted for a more SUN influenced OpenSolaris.org ?

Posted in OpenSolaris, OpenSource, Solaris & OpenSolaris on March 28th, 2008 by Michal Bielicki

Todays results of the OGB elections show quite a strong trend in the opensolaris.org community towards stronger impact and influence from SMI I think. 6 out of 7 elects are SMI employees, there is an influx of more senior SUN people and all over it seems that everybody who was screaming for SUN to give more power to the community has been voted out of the OGB by exactly that community he wanted to represent having more power. Fun. No polls needed I guess than. Stronger SMI influence it is, Indiana is the way to go forward as elected by the community.

I must say I like this since it fits to my line of thought.
