Greetings,
After 40 years (!), I am sad to say that connectathon is
canceled for 2018.
Please watch these mailing lists for more information regarding
the return of a second NFSv4 bake-a-thon in addition to the one
hosted by RedHat towards the end of September in Westford, MA.
I've updated the connectathon website to reflect the cancellation:
http://www.connectathon.info
Feel free to forward this to other interested parties.
Long live NFS,

This is very sad it hear... I did enjoy my yearly pilgrimage to the west coast.
I remember my first cthon, I was working for Lachman Associates, sponsored
by SCO, since we where selling them the both the NFS and TCP stacks back
in the day... I think the only version of Linux at that point was Slackware.
I remember my first cthon with Red Hat... A one person booth with at
least 4 or 5 desktop stack on each other... before the days
of vitalization... A bit tight... but I did "borrow" one of the
nice chairs from the NOC. ;-)
Who can forget the light bulb incident. A huge light from the ceiling,
in the Sun campus, let loose and hit the chair I should have been
sitting in... So I can honestly say that cthon almost kill me! 8-)
Then of course those dinners... I remember Beepy being so
thrilled that Red Hat would actually pick up a night cap!
But of course that was after his very expensive dinner...
Trond definitely took care a few of those as well... Plus
a few of my Red Hat colleges did learn about alligator arms!
Nothing but good!!! :-)
Definitely an end of a era... Sad..
Red Hat will continue to host interoperability events, but
we need to grow the server participation with the likes of
Vmware, Microsoft, Dell/EMC as well as any other
server vendors that are out there... Suggestions welcome!
