FAST conference..

[Jennifer Davis]

Before we go talk to USENIX about possible discount to FAST, is anyone 
interested in this conference?  It's in San Francisco, Dec 13-16
http://www.usenix.org/events/fast05/fast05.html.  I've never been so I 
don't know what it's like.  I think it's relevant to people who care about 
storage and accessing storage (NAS/SAN/cifs/nfs..).  The technical session 
look more researcher/engineer oriented.. but there looks like there are a 
couple of very interesting tutorial sessions..
T3 - NFS Version 4 (The Inside Story) .. (interesting to me as someone who 
has had to debug where problem was with regards to nfs..)
and
T4 - SNIA TUTORIALS: SAS, SATA, FIBRE CHANNEL, AND SCSI STORAGE 
PROTOCOLS ..

Let me know!

Thanks!

Jennifer
