[HECnet] CODA replaced by CHARON

I donno... bar drinks? lol

I haven't gone to a unixy group thing in ages... I know the unix group on meetup.com doesn't have any meetings going on a the moment but that'd be cool....

What 'sucks' for me is that my company I work for wants to sublet the office space... But I have a dedicated T1 in there... I should be hosting more then I am now.... But I could always offer that much up....

Ive been playing with:

http://www.superglobalmegacorp.com/

I wouldn't feel bad about hosting a VM or something as when they decided whatever it is they are doing I'll have to get out there QUICK and I wouldn't want to mix up peoples hardware....   But VM's are so trivial to bounce around....

Hello!
Well it happens I am always interested in an NYC meet. What did you
have in mind? I typically hang out at the NYLUG meetings, a NYLUG
meeting is do RSN, and then one for Open Solaris, that one is going to
be some what later.
