NetDev 0.1 Deadline Extension(Jan 24) and Talk Summary

[Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@tricolour.ca>]

Fellow netheads:

Due to several submitter requests we would like to accomodate, we have extended
the proposal submission deadline to Jan 24.  https://netdev01.org/cfp 


A reminder that the Westin Hotel is holding a block of rooms for Netdev01 at a
guaranteed rate of $159.00 or $179.00 (depending on the type of room required)
and the rooms are going fast due to Winterlude bookings.  That guarantee
expires on January 23, so book now to avoid disappointment and get the low
rate. The rooms are going faster than we expected!
