Hi Art,

Thanks for the suggestions. Keep 'em coming.

My thoughts...

It seems to me that code is just one of many things GLUG is concerned with.

On the question of having presentations outside the realm of UNIX and 
UNIX-like operating systems by arbitrary Sun partners, I personally feel 
that's getting a bit too far afield.

Just my 2 cents though.

By the way, I don't  know what IBM's POLARIS project is... You're not 
talking about the OpenSolaris on PowerPC community project are you? It's 
also called Polaris.

Regards,
Eric
