Hi Folks,

OpenSolaris Beijing User Group has successfully held the 7th meeting on 
the evening of last Friday, April 20, 2007 in China Academy of Science. 
The main topic is Java Desktop System - The new generation Desktop 
System on Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris. For more details, please visit my 
blog - blogs.sun.com/joeyguo.

To support the Open Source Programming Contest based on OpenSolaris in 
China Academy of Science (the top research institute in China), 
OpenSolaris Beijing User Group will deliver a series of open tutoring 
regularly. JDS was naturally chosen as the starting point because it is 
the first impression of Solaris end users. The follow-up topics will 
cover more on Solaris Developer Tools and OpenSolaris development guide 
like porting Linux/BSD applications and writing device drivers. Please 
stay tuned.
