RSVP and submit talk topics to zephyr-organizers at mit.edu by Sunday, February 6. Please forward this mail to anyone you think would be interested. Hi people interested in Zephyr, We (meaning Karl Ramm, current Zephyr maintainer, and me as organizer) are trying to get together a small Zephyr conference thing in Cambridge, Massachusetts on the Sunday of Presidents' Day weekend, February 20, 2011. Never having done this before, we have no idea how many people will be interested or show up, so if you will be coming, I'm requesting you RSVP to zephyr-organizers at mit.edu by no later than Sunday, February 6, so I have time to find a large enough space for us on or around MIT's campus. We're also looking for people to give short, not especially formal talks, probably no more than 30 minutes for the talk itself and 30 minutes for discussion. (The topics Karl suggested he might talk about were "Future protocol directions," "NATs: threat or menace?", and "Things I would like someone else to do with zwgc".) To that end, if you have something you'd like to talk about, please send e-mail with the subject and a brief description to zephyr-organizers at mit.edu by Sunday, February 6 (the same date as for RSVPs) and we'll figure out the schedule. We'll work out exact scheduling details once we have some idea how many people have things to talk about. As general guidelines, I'd expect not to begin much before 10a and not to end much later than 6p, though it wouldn't surprise me if a dinner mob develops following. We obviously don't have a hotel or anything official like that. There are a few options in the area, which Google Maps knows better than I do. Let me know at zephyr-organizers at mit.edu if you're having trouble finding lodging, and we'll work something out. A word on mailing lists: You're all receiving this because you are on zephyr-announce at mit.edu, which I populated from a few lists for zephyr-interested people (barnowl-dev at mit.edu mostly) or were otherwise known to be zephyr-interested. zephyr-announce is managed through MIT's Mailman list infrastructure, and you can unsubscribe or manage your subscription at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/zephyr . You can also e-mail me at zephyr-organizers at mit.edu and I'll take you off the list. Zephyr will be moving to its own mailing list infrastructure eventually, but bootstrapping off MIT's infrastructure was the fastest way to get things to moving forward. That said, this is *NOT* a limited invite! Please forward this to anyone you think would be interested. Hope to see you in February!

If you haven't RSVP'd, please come anyway! We'll have lots of space. When: Sunday, February 20, 1-5p Where: MIT campus, room 4-231 (second floor of Building 4) Directions to MIT: http://whereis.mit.edu/directions.html Building 4: http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=4 Parking: http://web.mit.edu/facilities/transportation/parking/visitors/public_parking.html (That's the long version; a friend says "This time of year, Mem Drive will likely have openings. Failing that, the lot at the intersection of Vassar and Mass Ave." The Hayward St Lot (http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=P5) is also available.) Schedule (approx.): * Kerberos 5 after-action report (Karl Ramm) * Git migration (Karl Ramm) * autobuilding / other infrastructure (Karl Ramm) * NATs: Threat or Menace? (Karl Ramm) * other future protocol directions (Karl Ramm) * Zephyr for mobile devices (Mark Eichin) * runtime-config (Karl Ramm) * "Things I Would Like Someone Else To Do With zwgc" (Karl Ramm) * transgalactic routing (Karl Ramm) * other future projects (Karl Ramm) If you're planning to show up late, I'd figure that each segment will last about a half hour. Also, if you sent a talk topic and you don't see it on this list, please re-send it to zephyr-organizers at mit.edu. There will likely be some kind of dinner mob following, but we'll plan that based on interest. I think that's everything. If you have any questions or concerns, please e-mail zephyr-organizers at mit.edu and we'll get it sorted out.

Unlikely to become anything, of course, but Now You Know. - Kevin, for zephyr-organizers --- Begin forwarded message from Mark Eichin --- From: Mark Eichin To: zephyr-organizers Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2011 16:01:16 -0500 Subject: Measles Incident (please forward to zephyr-dev-camp attendees) This? My building - they're on the 7th floor, we're on the 11th - and anecdotally everyone in my office (including me) has been vaccinated at least once... but You Should Know, since the exposure was two weeks ago (and I only found out yesterday.) _Mark_ http://www.thebostonchannel.com/health/26983816/detail.html Health officials said anyone who visited the building between Feb. 7 and Feb. 10 may have been exposed. The woman also rode the MBTA and visited three clinics while she was contagious, officials said. http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2011/02/24/boston_works_to_contain_measles_case/ BOSTON-Boston public health officials are trying to contain a possible measles outbreak after an employee of the French consulate came down with the infectious disease earlier this month. About 80 people who work in the same office building as the consulate employee were vaccinated Wednesday, but that is just a fraction of the up to 2,000 people who work in the building. Boston Public Health Commission Dr. Anita Barry says the woman also came into contact with people while riding the subway to work and at a community health center where she sought treatment. So far, the consulate worker, in her 20s and believed to be on a short-term internship, is the only person to fall ill with the disease. Symptoms include a cough, runny nose, fever and a rash. --- End forwarded message --- -- Kevin Riggle (kevinr at free-dissociation.com) http://free-dissociation.com
