- From the keyboard of brsmith@duncan.cs.umn.edu (Brian R. Smith):
- :Are there any (or would you like there to be any) public motss gatherings
- :(besides the GBLIC BOF) at the Winter USENIX?
-
- There will surely be innumerable motss micrbofs. "Whenever two of
- us are gathered together..." Wait, wrong context. Maybe. Anyway,
- while I'm sure someone will post something on the message board about
- a dinner, these things ussually happen spontaneously several times a day,
- and pprobably night as well.
-
- The problem for newbies is simply finding one another. There's a
- solution to that, as well. Just make sure you bring a pink pen.
- Look for the people who've etched inverted pink triangles on their
- badges. It's something of a running tradition.

- See ya there -- I gotta go catch the plane.
