[advocacy-discuss] Request for project set up: Southern Connecticut OpenSolaris User Group

[Jim Grisanzio]

hey ...

I just found this mail on project-setup. I`m forwarding to 
advocacy-discuss since that`s where UG proposals go. I assume the 
proposal was never acknowledged on project-setup because I don`t see any 
official response (but I may have missed it since I`ve been on and off 
project-set up at various times). Anyway, apologies for dropping this. 
I`m happy to set this up tomorrow. +1 from me.

Jim
