Hi all,
Jeff (jas) and I have been chatting about organizing a "Plan 9 : 2020"
workshop. We're trying to gauge everyone's interest, and to solicit agenda
items, venue suggestions, and hopefully volunteers to help organize it.
Agenda (roughly):
Aside from moral support and camaraderie, one main goal would be to team up
with 9fans to plan and start work on some longstanding issues and
(to-be-determined) feature requests.
There will be a call for papers on completed or works-in-progress for Plan
9 (all flavors), 9P, P9P and related projects. There has been some
interesting adoption of Plan 9 ideas which may be worth including in a
"State of Plan 9" of some sort. The circumstances alone beg a paper on
"9P2020".
It would also be an opportunity to discuss the latest trends in technology
and how they may benefit Plan 9's development.
Venue:
As for venue, Jeff is willing to host it at his Hanger 9 (a real hanger,
with airplanes) in Kenosha, WI. He will have high speed connectivity and a
Plan 9 network. Accommodations in the area will most likely be cheaper too.
If you have a different suggestion, or are willing to offer a venue, please
comment.
Sponsorship:
Yes, please?
Volunteering to help plan, organize, or help with the costs would be great.
As in past workshops, this will be a labor of love for all involved.
Please comment here with your interest and suggestions for the agenda,
venue, sponsorship/volunteering, etc (or other creative ideas).
Thanks,
-Skip

I'd be happy to volunteer some hours setting things up. I'd love to hear a
talk on mycroftiv's grid, as well.

I will very probably be unable to attend but I could help with some
money (don't expect thousands of dollars or other currency; but I will
be probably able to help with some hundreds).
