Subject: Virtual OpenAFS Workshop 2024 (June 10-12): your input is desired =
and needed
Dear friends of OpenAFS,

The Board of the OpenAFS Foundation wants to alert you to the fact that our=
 next virtual Workshop, June 10-12, 2024, is coming up! Here a few highligh=
ts to note:

  *   We intend to switch up things a bit when turning from AFS Technologic=
es in the 2023 workshop to this year=92s meeting as one that centers on Ope=
nAFS and on topics directly related to interoperability with OpenAFS.
  *   Having said this, all continue to be cordially invited to attend!
  *   Based on your feedback, we want to shift from predominantly presentat=
ion-style sessions to a more user-friendly, conversation-based discourse th=
at incorporates shorter as well as longer time slots.
  *   We plan to listen to your repeated and quite vocal calls for having a=
 conference schedule published earlier, so as it aid you in your discerning=
 when and how you wish to participate.
  *   To that end, we must insist on presentation topics with abstracts, or=
 discussion theme suggestions, to be submitted to us no later than 04/01/24=
 by emailing to openafs.workshop@gmail.com<mailto:openafs.workshop@gmail.co=
m>.  Sorry, this is not an April Fool=92s joke, nor is it an attempt to mak=
e your life unnecessarily difficult.  Rather, this early deadline takes int=
o account that processing your contributions and ideas, as well as composin=
g a viable workshop agenda, takes considerable care and consideration. Thus=
, we reserve two weeks for that process. It is our intent to put the agenda=
 at your fingertips approximately two months prior to the workshop itself.
  *   If you wish to volunteer by assisting hands-on (with schedule creatio=
n and/or workshop mechanics in real time behind-the-stage, etc), we encoura=
ge you to raise your hand by emailing to openafs.workshop@gmail.com<mailto:=
openafs.workshop@gmail.com>
  *   We will communicate registration details at a later date by separate =
email.

We are very much looking forward to your contributions=85 and to seeing you=
 at the workshop e-rooms in June.

Sincerely,
Margarete, on the behalf of the Board members
