The other day I came across a mail about some features of opensolaris being presented at a user group meeting, one I would have loved to go but couldn't because I live... well too far ;). So I came up with an idea: we could organize these kinds of presentations virtualy once ot twice every month, gather some users together, set up a virtual classroom and talk about common (and not so common) problems and explain how we would solve them in opensolaris followed by a Q&A. I thought that as virtual classroom we could use the opensolaris irc channel or set up another one specific for these meetings. In time we could even get the users select topics for the next meetings and log the sessions to poste them in the Articles project. The topics can be very diverse, "opensolaris for linux users", "DTrace for dummies", "setting up an LDAP server"... the sky is the limit there I know irc is rather limited when it comes to output but most of the unix commands return text anyway and the idea is to keep the sessions as informal as possible, like a chat during the coffee break with a friend.
what do you guys think? nacho _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
