to Sun.
There are three Solaris related events happening this week.
Unigroup's November 2008 Solaris 10 Release meeting (and Joint
Meeting with the NYC OpenSolaris User Group) is happening
Thursday evening at Sun's NYC office.

prior to the meeting date, so we can plan the food order.
RSVP deadline is usually the night before the meeting day.
