[Cialug] Meeting - Wednesday 19th

As the group is brand new (technically, it doesn't even exist yet), I
think that the topics are open.  I expect that, while we will focus on
the specific virtualization technologies previously mentioned, other
virtualization topics would be welcome.  Whether this is Solaris zones,
chrooting techniques in Linux or virtual hosts in Apache, I think that
the door is open.

What about Solaris zones?  Or are you lot just sticking to the 
multi-platform stuff for the most part?
