As the title states, I’ve been recently elected as a campus ambassador for my university. When I talk about my newly acquired job, people keep asking: Woah, nice… hummm, but what does it mean after all ? Here are my main responsabilities on this cool project:
- Lead the Sun developer community on your campus by starting a Sun Open Source User Group
- Run Sun Technology demo sessions as part of your user group meetings
- Help support Sun events and contests
- Evangelize Sun development tools to students, professors and researchers
So I’ll be posting here (or my own sun.com blog) my experiences on this new opportunity on my life as a computer enthusiast 
There are a lot of new and amazing Open Source Sun initiatives to discover and explore, I’ll try to keep you all readers entertained with my findings !
In fact, jmmv has already greeted my on his blog in advance about a topic related to DTrace, thanks Julipedia 
Thanks also to my favourite sysadmins for my new DTrace privileges needed to conduct my first tech talk
*UPDATE*: Here’s my new Sun blog: http://blogs.sun.com/rvalls
