[ANNOUNCE] 2009 Linux Storage and Filesystem Summit

[James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>]

Hello everyone,

Planning for the next Linux storage and filesystem workshop is underway.
Mark those calendars!

        April 6-7, 2009
        Hotel Kabuki (http://www.jdvhotels.com/kabuki/)
        San Francisco

The workshop is intended to bring together developers and researchers to
improve the Linux storage and file system stacks in the next year or
two.  The workshop is by invitation and focuses on collaboration and
implementation.

This workshop is being held in the two days immediately preceding the
Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit so that people have the option of
attending both events.

The two days of the workshop are made up of a mix of separate file
system and storage sessions and a combined plenary session.  This year
we're adding scheduled time for hands-on collaborative engineering.

The content is driven by the attendees.  In a number of weeks we'll be
announcing a web site hosted by the Linux Foundation.  This site will
let people register their interest in attending and raise topics for
discussion.  From these submissions we will choose attendees, discussion
topics, and session leaders.

This mail is intended to give people a chance to reserve the date and
think about topics to discuss before the site goes live.  I'll be
sending out more email announcements at that time.

Please feel free to ask me any questions that you might have.  Thanks!

James
