Here is Moinak talking enthusiastically about the Project Indiana at October BOSUG Meeting where I had a chance to talk a bit about the Challenges and Future Plans for Nexenta.
The audience was very open asking a lot of questions and discussing with smile on their faces various aspects of open development of OpenSolaris.
At let me say it straight, no matter how much we all expect big things from Indiana, we all agreed that the way it is communicated and developed is not very community like. Did I hear someone say something about Sun throwing the source code over the wall?
Let’s hope this will change as more and more code becomes available for the public to see.
Here are the pictures I captured, and there is the rest from Milan.

Conferences, EN, Nexenta, OpenSolaris
I have finished reading the book My Job Went To India just one week before leaving to India for another business trip. Highly Recommended to anybody working in a global company… 
Although I usually really like books from The Pragmatic Programmers, I kind of didn’t want to read that one because I thought that I already know everything about programming and relationships with Indian engineers after having worked as a manager of small international team of developers. Boy how mistaken I was.
The book is very well written, eye opening and what I liked the most, the author is really tolerant and open minded, the type of a cross-cultural guy you want to take for a beer at least once.
I’m not going to present a book review, just want to say thank you to Honza KopÅ™iva who borrowed me his copy and suggest you to get a copy and enjoy it.
