I have rented one Joyent accelerator for the purpose of putting up
various prototypes of a user facing website/portal. (server:
b1.brandorr.com) Please let me know if you are interested in assisting
this project, and I will give you access. (Especially if you have
MoinMoin experience.)

Shawn Walker, and Shiv are interested in working on this also, but
there is a lot to work out, so the more the merrier.

Cheers,
Brian

P.S. - The Summit topics related to this are listed below.

No User portal.. Opensolaris.org is aimed at developers:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"As Sun is marketing/pushing Indiana, Solaris, and OpenSolaris, we are
seeing many people that aren't developers coming to this site.  As
this is the first thing they see when they get here, I feel that this
should be the logical location for a user oriented welcome page. I
also propose that this welcome page is much simpler, as the current
page is a bit overwhelming for newcomers. (Hard to find certain links)

Developers would still have access to a developer homepage that is
linked off the new homepage. (We might even setup a redirect:
dev.opensolaris.org)


Opening care and feeding of Infrastructure to non-Sun employees:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Currently the Opensolaris.org infrastructure (www.opensolaris.org and
the mailing lists being two example pieces of infrastructure) is
completely maintained by Sun employees. This limits available
resources.

There are many of sys-admin types out in the community that are
capable, and most likely willing, to help out. (As well as businesses
that might be willing to fund contract employees to aid in this
endeavor)

Might we explore a path to opening Opensolaris.org's care and feeding
to the greater community?
