We decided at some point to document all the people who installed OpenSolaris at the Sun booth at FISL, but we did it with several different cameras. Here’s my collection of happy customers!
FISL, 2009
In June, 2009, I went to Porto Alegre, Brazil, to help staff a Sun booth (along with many other people, a bunch of whom became friends) at FISL, billed as the world’s largest open source conference.
President Lula of Brazil Meets OpenSolaris
Some of our OpenSolaris user group leaders in Brazil got to meet their president. I was privileged to get up close to film.

I’m very proud of this: palestrante means speaker. FISL (this is the 10th edition) is one of the world’s largest open source conferences. The little orange button is important: PR stands for PRESIDENT. Which means I got to be one of the 300 people on the show floor when Brazil’s President Lula came to call, and was able to get pretty up close and personal among the mob. Video here.
