<title>BSD Conference Japan 2002</title>
<p><a href="http://bsdcon.jp/">BSD Conference Japan 2002</a>
was held in Tokyo on November 23rd, 2002. During the conference
FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD folks in Japan got together
to discuss various topics of mutual interest.
In addition, <a href="http://www.apple.com/">Apple
Computer, Inc.</a> gave us
excellent lectures about Mac OS X and Rendezvous.
<a href="http://www.matsui.co.jp/">Matsui Securities Co.,Ltd</a>,
<a href="http://www.yahoo.co.jp/">Yahoo Japan Corporation</a>,
and <a href="http://www.sakura.ad.jp/">SRS SAKURA Internet Inc.</a>
gave case studies of how FreeBSD is used in their
production environments.
<a href="http://www.brains.co.jp/eng-ver/e-index.html">Brains
Corporation</a> gave a talk on
<a href="http://www.brains.co.jp/eng-ver/e-mmeyedemo/index.html">mmEye</a>,
which is equipped with 32bit RISC CPU SH-3 and runs NetBSD.</p>
<p>The event report published by Mainichi Communications inc.,
can be found at
<a href="http://pcweb.mycom.co.jp/news/2002/11/25/10.html">MYCOM PCWEB
(but sorry, Japanese only)</a>. There were 172 attendees at
the conference. We are pleased with this turnout, considering
that this was the first attempt to hold such an event in Japan.</p>
