[opensolaris-summit] Parking, biking, and Friday setup

[Jesse Silver]

Stuart, you beat me too it :)

A welcome email is coming tomorrow; it will include directions, shuttle 
and parking information, weather/clothing info etc...

Santa Cruz is certainly a bicycle friendly city and I will include info 
on that as well.

With regards to the server equipment, our plan has changed slightly, 
though we still need help setting up.

We are now shipping Ultra 40's and 45's, instead of the M5000 and other 
racked boxes to provide more flexibility in what we do with the 
computers. This way, we can set up private networks, move them between 
rooms or set them all up in the same room, etc... I've set up a meeting 
with the computing director at the UCSC school of engineering for 
Tuesday. An email with more info on this is coming on Monday.

Thanks all,
Jesse
