Subject: [opensource-announce] Meeting #2: Android Ideas
Message-ID: <240a31830801171050j199d325cx789d266e7e53e583@mail.gmail.com>

Hey Everyone,

The next meeting will be tonight January 17th, 2008 in Dreese Labs 266 at
7pm. (If the people in that room are lingering, then we'll meet in the room
next to it if its free -- room 264.)

Tonight's Schedule
*********************
With our funding for new equipment (computers), I'd like to buy some new
equipment online for our lab. I.E get a new pc and/or notebook, which would
lead us into next weeks meeting were we would be installing Ubuntu, selling
back Windows, and then using that money for food / coffee / t-shirt / pack
of gum / stamp for letter to bill gates.

But additionally I think it would be cool if we created a project/app for
the Android platform (http://code.google.com/android/adc.html), and then
dedicated some of our weekly meetings towards developing it.

So... come with a head full of ideas, and hopefully The Open Source Club @
Ohio State will have something to submit by March 3rd.

There is grant money and some good experience to be made from this.

********************

Meetings are typically every Thursday @ 7pm meeting in Dreese Lab 266.

Subject: [opensource-announce] Open Solaris techtalk + free pizza (tuesday)
Message-ID: <240a31830801280920v1f295a37s7a18205a4fd45325@mail.gmail.com>

Sun Microsystems will be giving a presentation on Open Solaris this Tuesday
at our Opensource Club meeting.

For the uninitiated, Open Solaris is Sun's open source project. Open Solaris
development becomes source code for the next Solaris Operating System. Thus
a community based approach towards improving the Operating System. We
welcome everybody to come out and find out what Sun's big project is.

For additional information, check out the project homepage:

Opensource Club Meeting Details
 Who: Sun Microsystems
When: this Tuesday Janurary 28th at 7pm
Where: Dreese Labs room 317

Free: pizza and drinks, plus maybe some Sun swag

One of the projects in Open Solaris is the code browser OpenGrok, which is
dubbed as "wicked fast", and anything that dubs itself wicked anything is
wicked cool in my book.
