Seamless OpenSolaris

Congrats to the VirtualBox team on being the first (that I know of) to provide a working Seamless/Unity/Coherence mode for OpenSolaris 2008.05 guests on OS X.  (I don’t know how long this has actually worked, I only tried it last night, in VB 1.6…)

Obviously a bit of work to do before it rivals the sort of integration that Windows guests enjoy in Fusion and Parallels, but it’s a good step in the right direction…

Google Swag

Was slightly surprised to find a Google Summer of Code 2007 t-shirt in the mail this morning– had forgotten I’d even signed up as a mentor. Obviously my services weren’t required this year, which is probably no bad thing for the would-be protégé.
