This is the same facility used to host connectathon the last several years. I've reserved the auditorium for the week of June 26th. Much as I like downtown Ann Arbor, the auditorium offers more than ample space in a comfortable facility. We would like to continue the momentum of testing NFSoRDMA and the extra equipment is not very practical at the workantile. The usual suspects will be running the event: Tina.Hartshorn@oracle.com - registration, facilities Chad.Wasinger@oracle.com - network setup If you have concerns with this plan, please voice them here on-list, or to me privately. Last thing I would want to do is discourage participation via this venue change. Feel free to forward this to other interested parties.

Unfortunately, the people on the Red Hat team is having a very hard time finding reasonable airfares to the West coast. Instead of $300 or $400 its well over $1000 which is causing push back by our management. I, personally, have been looking for the last a couple weeks, hoping the the prices would come down but they have not... They have not gone up, but they have not come down. So at this point it looks like the Red Hat team will not be attend this BAT, which is disappointing because the timing actually worked out well with our internal scheduling. With that said, I had every intention after this BAT of announcing the date Fall BAT for the last week in Sept (25th to 29th). Hopefully at this point airfares will be more reasonable so it will be well attended. I will make a more official announcement later on... steved. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Perhaps it is time to drop back to just 2 events per year, connectathon and Fall BAT hosted by RedHat. Would anyone be opposed to that? Time to speak up is now. I'm on the hook for the auditorium. Sorry for all the re-planning, we should have discussed this during connectathon. -- Bill Baker, Oracle ZFSSA/NFS development ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

I know that would work for us. I must admit I would miss Ann Arbor... It is a great little city but unfortunately the facilities are little rough...

With a little more lead time, I could do some scouting. It's probably still one of the cheaper destinations. That said, twice a year sounds more reasonable to me, so as long as the Santa Clara/Westford rotation is working, and it's somebody else doing the work, I'm not complaining! --b. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

The general consensus seems to be that we should cancel the June bake-a-thon and fall back to twice a year. I will be canceling the reservation on the Santa Clara auditorium immediately.
