First Meeting!

Our first meeting was part of a Sun Microsystems Technical Update on Tuesday 19th February 2007. For more details see Announcements at left.

Purpose

The Adelaide OpenSolaris User Group (ADL-AUOSUG) seeks to drive OpenSolaris awareness and adoption amongst the enthusiast and industry community in Adelaide, Australia.

The target audience is initially UNIX enthusiasts who use UNIX at home or work. We perceive that a significant number of UNIX enthusiasts in the area will be interested in meeting and exchanging ideas about OpenSolaris and related technologies. We want to contribute documentation and small code changes back to the community. Once established we could broaden scope to include students and would encourage adoption of OpenSolaris in student projects.

Outputs

The project will archive its contributions, presentations, and other material to the project space on the OpenSolaris site.
