[Woodruff, Robert J]

Hi Bill,
 
I see that you have me listed for speaking about iWarp. I am clearly the
wrong
person to be speaking on this subject and suggest you solicit someone
from
the iWarp community. 
 
iWARP implementation in OFED           Bob Woodruff, Intel

Also, could you please add Jianxin Xiong as a speaker for
"SoftIB a software based InfiniBand implementation in a Xen
environment", I did not see him on the agenda and we had gotten
previous agreement that he could speak at the conference. 
You can co-ordinate the details with Jianxin.
Thanks in advance,

woody

Subject: [promoters] Update on the Sonoma Workshop - plse check all
theattached information



Dear Member of the OpenFabrics Community,

 

This email is sent to you 2 weeks before for 3 reasons

 

1)       to tell you who is attending, what is the agenda at moment and
to ask you to check your personal status with regard to your
registration, hotel reservation and speaking commitment;

2)       to ask you to check with your colleagues, your friends and your
business to encourage those you know will benefit from attending to do
so.

3)       Our room block at the Lodge expires at 5PM PDT Tuesday April17
and the hotel is filling up fast -URLs to make reservations are at the
bottom of this email - this is the only way to get the special rates.

 

Here's a few words about this workshop.

 

It's not a "marketing" event - it's a working session where developers,
Linux distros, chip,switch and storage companies, Tier 1 OEMs, an
integrators, software companies and end-user customers hold a series of
working sessions to get up to date on the status of the latest OFED
release, everyone's experience with OpenFabrics, InfiniBand and Low
latency Ethernet is, what is still needed to be done for the OpenFabrics
stack to be core component of Linux, to be the software of choice for
the switch companies and the OEMs/Integrators and how end user customers
can be sure of every level of support and problem resolution they need.

 

Attached you will find the currently registered attendess, the current
list of people who have reserved rooms at the Lodge and the current
agenda with the sessions and speakers identified.

 

There are lots of anomalies between these lists and here is the analysis
of those anomalies. Please check to see if you are one of them and then
fix the mismatch between registered for workshop, have a hotel room,
speaking but have neither registered nor reserved a room, etc. Please
forgive me if you see your name below but we are trying to ensure
everyone who is attending, speakers included, has registered; that
everyone has an hotel reservation and that all the speakers we are have
planned for are planning to be with us.
