Apologies to those who have already read a similar article: the first version didn't make it out of Halifax. I would like to see if there is enough interest to hold a "Canadian BOF" at Usenix. The main topics of interest would probably be related to communications (uunet, Trailblazers, Internet access etc.), but getting hardware/software in Canada, prices etc. might be other possibilities. One issue to settle would be time: Rayan has suggested Monday evening, but since I won't be there I would prefer another time (not that that should stop you from having it then). I suggest Tuesday evening for the same reason as Rayan wanted Monday: there will too many big-draw BOFs on other nights. I suspect that there won't be many scheduled for Tuesday evening (based on past experience). Please let me know of your interest, topics for discussion and time preferences, and I will summarize. -- UUCP {uunet utai watmath}!dalcs!david CDN david@cs.dal.cdn INTERNET david%dalcs@uunet.UU.NET
