Re: [PLUG] USENIX LISA '08 Call For Papers
|
Ah, its back to SoCal this year - the best venue by far of all the
USENIX stuff.
It sucks that its so late this year. After 5 when everything wraps up,
its already pretty dark. When they used to have it in early to mid
October before DST change, you still had a couple of hours of daylight
to hit the sights.
