We will be meeting elsewhere starting in June. It was the longest run we had at any single meeting place. We are working on a few options, but interested in any other possibilities. A space that fits =<40, if a corporate space no strings attached. Ping admin@ if you have some ideas. ****** May 7 John Baldwin on bhyve 18:45, Suspenders Bar and Restaurant Abstract One of the new features in FreeBSD 10.0 is bhyve: a BSD-licensed hypervisor. This talk will describe some of the unique properties of bhyve and its design focus. It will also provide a brief introduction on running guests from bhyve including host configuration as well as a brief demo. Speaker Bio John first started using FreeBSD in 1996 and has been an active kernel developer since 2000. He has worked for various companies that use FreeBSD with a recent penchant for hacking on bhyve. John lives in New Jersey with his wife and three kids. ********************** BSDCan is coming up in a couple of weeks.
