This is an exciting opportunity for people to get involved, to discover, share ideas and contribute to what is one of the most exciting operating systems available today!

He’s even offered to lay on food and drink – so if you are free there’s no reason not to head on down!

Everyone has a chance to contribute – from updating documentation, through writing code, to working out how to build the OS from source. This is an important chance for the OpenSolaris community to work around the communication issues with Oracle and start doing things for ourselves.
