Below is the information on the upcoming ONC/NFS Vendors' Group Meeting to be held in September. This material went out to a large mailing from a variety of mailing lists we've captured. If we missed you, or you are a new ONC developer, drop me an e-mail. We have a pretty strong vendor community and this is one of two events held each year where everyone gets together to discuss trends in the ONC/NFS world. (The other event is the Connectathon NFS+ interoperability testing). This was originally a three page mailing.
