Well, Oracle bought it, killed it, and left us reconsidering what we were doing. The primary topic for this meeting will be "what happened next." (Hint: we moved to VMware.)

The majority of our VMware guests are Linux, though this year as part of moving to VDI, there's more than a few Windows desktops running as well.

For our internal development, we primarily use Java/JBoss/JSPs and related technologies, and I can talk a bit about those as well. Pretty much anything we're doing is fair game - just ask.

The glass doors in the SE corner of the building are our guest lobby, come on in where you get there. We will be asking everyone to sign in, and I'll have a book out in that area.
