z/VM - Happy 45th Birthday Celebration

Project and Program: Linux & VM, VM

Tags: Proceedings , SHARE Providence 2017 , 2017

The VM operating system has always held a special place in the hearts of its systems programmers and users.  Over the last 45 years, a strong community has grown based on the usage and customization of VM as the first, and still the best, virtualization hypervisor.  Indiviuals from the group have been leaders in many non-operating system areas as well, such as having the first (pre-WWW) online community, and leading the fight for keeping source code available to customers, long before the "Open Source" movement was born. 
So, come and join the Linux and VM Program as we celebrate the 45th anniversary of the VM operating system, and, the amazing, passionate and, sometimes a bit wacky, community of people who have supported it for 4 1/2 decades.-Rick Barlow-Nationwide Insurance
