Hi, I am hopefully going to be attending this conference for the first time. Hence, I am not sure of what BOF sessions are. Could you please let me know what they are and if you can, please send me a schedule - topics - for these sessions. Thank you Rajesh -- Rajesh S.

Actually, my experience at the past few USENIX conferences has been that there are almost no BOFs left. About 80% of the BOF sessions seem to simply be alternate talks, with speakers, transparencies and prepared talks. Admittedly, they are less formal than the program sessions, but they are not quite what one would think of as BOFs. -- Brad Templeton, ClariNet Communications Corp. -- Waterloo, Ontario 519/884-7473
