Almost all of them were beneath me and so I signed up for something that was completely out of my job description but sounded interesting, "Writing Solaris 2.x device drivers". (I really wanted to take the class on Multithreaded programming but there were none that I could schedule in.) Anyway so from August 31-Sept 4 I will be learning the process of writing Solaris Device drivers straight from sun. Right after that, I might be able to do it but there are no guarentees. I am busy writing a book for O'Reilly and I need to finish that by the end of the year. -benReceived on 1998-07-28 19:10:42
