SPARC Committee Meeting Minutes - March 2003
Meeting date: March 6, 2003
Attendees:
Alan Williams (Sentraliant), Jay Campbell (GEFA), Rajan Janjani (GEFA), Charles
Pfeiffer (Alstom), Steve Alexander (Circuit City), Joe McFadden (Sun), and Wayne
Diehl (Sun).
Purpose:
Monthly SPARC committee Meeting
Summary of decisions, discussions, and action items:
- Welcome to Rajan Janjani (GE Financial) as a new attendee at the steering
committee.
- Next meeting date will be 4/3. The committee meeting will continue to be
held just prior to the general membership meeting as this time works well
for most members.
- The Northern Virginia group had an interesting topic - Security and ROI.
It was presented by Dick Winkler, a Sun SE. This would make a good meeting
topic and was selected as the first choice of a topic.
- An alternate topic is Solaris Security, presented by long time presenter
Harry Foxwell. Harry's meetings are always well attended as he is an excellent
speaker. This is the second choice of a topic if Dick Winkler cannot make
the April meeting.
- Other topic suggestions for future meetings include Cecil Jacobs to speak
on configuring Jumpstart Services, Solaris 9, and Sun internals, and the new
version of Veritas.
- Jay will contact Veritas about the new version for a future meeting.
- Oracle no longer has a local sales representative.
- Joe and Wayne will coordinate finalizing topic for April meeting.
- Many thanks to Sun for sponsoring many of the meetings lately. Joe and Wayne
will contact the local resellers to see if they have either topics to present
or the desire sponsor a meeting in the next few months.
- Steve will post these minutes on the web site.
Regards,
Steve
