[advocacy-discuss] [Fwd: [request-sponsor] Thiruvannamalai OSUG Community Start-Up : Proposal]

[Jim Grisanzio]

Hi ... yes, this is where Santhosh would come to get an OSUG space on 
the site.

These are all the existing OSUGs:

http://opensolaris.org/os/community/advocacy/usergroups/ug-leaders/

And these are the details about joining the community and proposing a 
new OSUG here: http://opensolaris.org/os/community/advocacy/usergroups/.

I used to to contribute to many open source events in my college and in my locality. I have given many talks on Open Solaris, D-Trace, ZFS in my college and in my nearby college in our locality. Nearly 600+ students have enrolled under my leadership and are being trained under java, open solaris, Netbeans,Glassfish and Mysql.

Hence we started to train many students on Open Solaris and I have undertook a project of Installing Solaris in our labs and deploying it. I think it would be useful for us, if We start a new OSUM community in our locality( Thiruvannamalai, TamilNadu, INDIA) as here we have a mix of rural and urban people, I find it difficult to make the club myself without any support.
