FW: Call for presentation materials; Attendee List

FYI, some follow-up from the Minneapolis meeting last week.

Note that they're requesting comments and suggestions for making GDLM
compatible with other applications, among other things.  Their API is a
bit different from OpenDLM.

I removed the list of attendees, in case you're wondering, in case
anyone is sensitive to that sort of thing.

Hi folks,

And thanks for your part in making the first-ever Minneapolis Cluster=20
Summit a great success.  Here is the attendee list as promised, in the=20
form of a massive cc list.  You're encouraged to "Reply All" with any=20
comments, suggestions, gripes, flames or other constructive material. =20
Please don't worry about generating n-squared traffic, as n is yet low.

There may be a few names on the list who didn't actually make it; no=20
matter, I'd rather err on the side of not leaving anybody out who was=20
there.  If you know of anybody I left out, could you please email me.

Speakers:

Including non-Red Hat speakers, please send me your slides and any=20
supporting materials you feel are relevant.  Even (pointers to) code=20
would be fine, and white papers certainly qualify.  Even png scans of=20
napkins might get posted :-)  This is all for posting to the community=20
cluster site.

Please send attachments, not URL's, except for code and/or links to=20
project homepages.  Please indicate which text/links in your email are=20
to appear on the web page.  Please include a short bio, just a few=20
words.

Everybody:

This cc list is for ongoing discussion of the material we covered at the

summit, in particular:

   * Possible amendments to CMAN interfaces to accommodate your
     own project - now is a good time to speak.

   * Possible amendments to GDLM, with a view to adoption by other
     projects besides GFS

   * Mainline submission track.  Code and [RFC]'s should start
     appearing on lkml in October.  What code?  How changed?  What
     supporting arguments?  Now is the time to sort that out.

   * Clustered Samba: anybody out there willing to look at how to
     graft oplocks, weird case translations, clustered tdb, etc onto
     gfs, please shout

   Anything else that's on your mind

The conference information page has been updated with the "as built"=20
conference schedule:

Thanks once again for your tremendous support.

Regards,

Daniel
