Subject: Announce: San Francisco Cypherpunks, Sat 2/16/02, 6pm - 225 11th, SF
This announcement will be at
http://cryptorights.org/cypherpunks/meetingpunks.html
and is being sent to several cypherpunks-related mailing lists.
===============================================
The San Francisco Bay Area Cypherpunks Meeting will be Saturday,
February 16, 2002, at Don Ramon's Restaurant, 225 11th St, San
Francisco.
As usual, this is an open public meeting on US soil. Everyone's
invited, including non-US-citizens, and several suspected Canadians will
be present :-)
Our agenda is a widely-held secret.
Predicted topics include Intrepid Traveller Bill Scannell's trip to
Cuba, discussion of the crypto and data-sharing presentations from
Codecon, potentially a couple of projects that were too late for
Codecon, and generally what everybody's been doing and working on.
The unusual time and place are because the Codecon conference
www.codecon.org will be a block away at the DNA Lounge www.dnalounge.com
Friday-Sunday afternoons, and the RSA conference will be at the San Jose
Convention Center the following week. A number of cypherpunks will be
speaking at Codecon (See people.html and schedule.html.)
The RSA Conference appears to have decided to protect their agenda
through Obscurity; you can obtain PDFs of the agenda from their website
if you have Multimedia Flash :-) Codecon is a low-priced conference; RSA
has high-priced talks, low-priced exhibits, and the usual vendor
parties.
=================== DIRECTIONS AND PARKING ====================================
Don Ramon's Restaurant - Look for Usual Suspects, probably upstairs.
The restaurant serves family-style Mexican food, as well as caffeine and
ethanol, and is said to be pretty good.
Directions: 225 11th St. is a block north of the DNA Lounge,
for which directions are available at http://www.dnalounge.com/directions/ .
From the South Bay:
Take 101 North to the 9th Street / Civic Center exit.
Take 9th Street, and turn left onto Harrison, then right onto 11th.
From the East Bay:
From the Bay Bridge, take I-80 West to the 9th Street / Civic Center exit.
Keep right at the fork in the ramp. Turn left onto Harrison, then right
onto 11th.
By Public Transit:
The nearest BART stations are at 16th and Mission and Civic Center
(Market and Hyde), both about 3/4ths of a mile away. There are bus
stops at 11th and Harrison (right outside the club), and at Market and
Van Ness (four blocks away). From Caltrain, it appears that the #47 bus
is probably the best choice.
Parking is easy for once: Ample public parking is available at the
Costco parking lot, at the corner of 11th and Harrison. The parking lot
entrance is on 11th. You can also find free street parking, but beware
of the street cleaning signs.
