Chris- There's no reason not to play in OpenSolaris, even if you are "no longer" a developer. I spent my life as a sysadmin, sys engineer, sys architect, and product manager. I've never had a job as a developer, never written code as my main occupation. In fact, I've never written any production C code as part of my job and doubt seriously I could sit down and write a C program more difficult than "Hello World" from scratch without a lot of effort. However, over the past 15 years or so, I've dabbled with a little code from time to time -- GNU EMACS beta tester, Perl FAQ maintainer and author, MUD admin, now OpenSolaris evangelist -- each one ended up with me contributing some bug fixes here and there in one of many languages. So, don't envy anyone; dig in once in awhile! ;-) -spp This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
