Advocacy Community Group

Melbourne OpenSolaris User Group (MSOSUG)

This group exists to drive awareness and adoption of Solaris and OpenSolaris in the Melbourne region of Australia. We are unashamedly technical in our meetings, and focus on the technologies, rather than any single product.

Our desire is to increase technical awareness and skills, and to help enable adoption of OpenSolaris based technologies wherever they are a good fit and encourage users to become more familiar and active with OpenSolaris and the new features made available over time either through Solaris, Solaris Express or OpenSolaris.

It is hoped that the MSOSUG will ultimately contribute documentation and code changes back to the community. If you would like to contribute, let the list know.
