Hi,

This is *Ashok Kumar*, a newbie to Open Solaris.

Luckily, i got a chance to contribute on *One Laptop Per Child project*.

Currently the whole olpc team is working on linux.

but i am interested on Open Solaris, and i want port opensolaris to OLPC
boards.

It won't be much deal, because it is x86 compatible and just i started to
study.

you can get details about olpc here, http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Home

i feel that,a separate *"community"* or *"a mailing list under user group
community"* for Open solaris discussion would be useful for the people who
is interested on OLPC boards.

similarly i want to create a mailing list on *laptop.org* also, by having a
link to each other will be useful to search OLPC related activities on Open
solaris. If any newbie comes to any one of the mailing list, immediately he
can come to know about other one. so i will talk on OLPC mailing list and
will get back to you.

*why,* the preference to *opensolais.org/os* website?
i can create some mailing list on some other website, and i can provide link
on olpc wiki also. it won't be good.
Because The *OLPC and Opensolaris websites* are like banyan tree, well
known,every newbie will give preference to these websites only. So i want to
have branch from here itself. Creating a mailing list on these website will
not only make sense, but also the work what i am doing? and in future what
others will do?, also will be safe. if i am quiting from this, some body can
take and continue.
**
*Mr.Moinak Ghosh*(i hope, everyone knows about him) also interested on OLPC
boards and many others like me.

I hope, you will provide a branch from this Banyan tree to grow.

i am expecting suggestion from every one..

*so please respond*


regards
Ashok
