Its "Solaris Month" at Unigroup with TWO Solaris meetings planned...
There are two meetings happening in June 2013: 1st was the Solaris Kernel Engineers meeting (already happened), then 2nd is the Solaris 11.1 Release Meeting.
RSVPs are now open for the Solaris 11.1 Release Meeting, Solaris Month #2 of 2.
UNIGROUP SPECIAL MEETING #1 of 2:
The panel should include:
Markus Flierl, VP of Solaris Core Kernel Development, formerly Solaris Networking Lead.
Bart Smaalders, Snr. Developer, Solaris IPS, Performance.
Darren Moffat, Snr. Developer, Solaris Security.
Isaac Rozenfeld, Solaris Product Management.
Oracle/Sun Kernel Engineers will be in town in NYC, and we are planning a special joint meeting with LOPSA-NYC in Midtown NYC, at LOPSA-NYC's normal meeting location at D.E. Shaw Research.
This will be a free/no-charge meeting, open to the public, but we do have a maximum capacity on the meeting room, so it will be first come first serve. (We do expect to have plenty of room for everyone.)
The FIRST round of Unigroup RSVPs will be for THIS special Solaris Kernel Engineers meeting. Please hold off on RSVPs for our SECOND Solaris 11.1 Release meeting, happening later in the month on our regular 3rd Thursday meeting day.
These RSVPs will go to building security at D.E. Shaw and Building Security at the front desk WILL REQUIRE your Photo ID.
Use the Unigroup RSVP link below for both meetings.
Food Service for this meeting should be Pizza and Soft Drinks, sponsored by Oracle. Thanks Oracle!
Oracle also brought a bunch of Solaris 11.1 DVDs for giveaways.

The publishers always ask that the persons receiving the books provide a review and/or feedback about their books.

! Students: We are looking for proof that you are
currently enrolled in classes (rather than working
full-time), and as such, your Student ID should show
a CURRENT date. We have been presented Student IDs
