Abstract: OpenSolaris is a global engineering project. It's big and complex and
can be confusing, but things are really changing now. We are growing
rapidly and beginning to solve some of the biggest challenges we've had
since we opened. It's still early, though, so the timing for getting
involved is perfect. That's what we'll talk about -- community
development and participation, infrastructure and governance changes,
and lots of lessons learned along the way.
