Subject: Full house this week - RSVP now if you're coming - Mark Burgess
 "SysAdmin 3.0: The Infrastructure Engineer" at BayLISA 1/19/2012
Message-ID: <CAO5JrL48W0GBVjucXvf8F8a2kfkZ9famcq2uMUeQfvS1=XFO2A@mail.gmail.com>

Hi folks,

We're pleased to welcome Mark Burgess of CFEngine.com as this month's
BayLISA speaker. The meeting is at 7:30pm this Thursday, January 19,
2012, at LinkedIn (currently scheduled for the usual "Culture Club"
meeting room at 2051 Stierlin Ct, 94043).

Dr. Burgess's talk,?"SysAdmin 3.0: The Infrastructure Engineer," is
looking to be popular, with a full house of 60 RSVPs already in and a
waiting list forming.

We are looking into a larger space, and if that happens, details will
be emailed, as well as posted on www.baylisa.org and Meetup...

IMPORTANT: If you're planning to come but haven't RSVPed yet, please go to

http://www.meetup.com/BayLISA/events/38191672/

...and register for the event. If you have RSVPed already--thank
you--but if your plans change, please change your status on the site
so that a waiting list person can join us. Waiting list slots should
convert on a first-come, first-served basis, so the sooner you RSVP,
the better your chances will be of getting in.

We base meeting space (where possible) and refreshments on the number
of RSVPs received, and with 65 people interested so far, we want to
make sure that everyone who wants to hear Dr. Burgess speak can do so
comfortably. We appreciate your support and cooperation, and I do my
best not to over-email people through Meetup or any of our other
communication venues.

Thanks, and hope to see you this Thursday.

Robert Novak
BayLISA President

Hi everyone,

We've opened up a few more slots to the waiting list for tonight's
BayLISA meeting. However, it looks to be a very full house.

If you've already RSVPed, and decide not to come to the meeting,
please change your RSVP as soon as possible so someone else can get
in.

If you did not RSVP yet, please be aware that we may not have room for
you. Like most organizations, we are subject to the laws of physics,
and no amount of NoSQL will change that.

It's not too late to register for the waiting list at
http://www.meetup.com/BayLISA/events/38191672/ and we will allow
updates until 4pm in case people's plans change.

Thanks,
Robert Novak
for BayLISA

Subject: USENIX LISA '12 Call for Participation Now Available 
Message-ID: <E4C5C778-1F80-4FAE-8B3D-15C2A4DB8BC8@usenix.org>

The 26th Large Installation System Administration Conference (LISA '12)
exists because of your great contributions! On behalf of the LISA '12
organizers, I invite you to submit your ideas. 

The Call for Participation (CFP), with submission guidelines and sample
topics, can be found on the USENIX Web site at:

    http://www.usenix.org/lisa12/cfpa/

The annual LISA conference is the meeting place of choice for system
administrators, IT architects, and IT engineers. The conference provides
a rich mix of technical training by industry experts, dynamic talks that
inspire attendees to think beyond today, panel discussions for debate
of current issues, ask-the-expert guru sessions, and presentations by
people like you who introduce the next generation of methods and
solutions.

The conference's diverse participants are matched by an equally
broad spectrum of activities:

* Refereed papers are written papers, 8 to 18 pages long, that describe
work that advances the art or practice of system administration. 

* Practice and experience reports are compelling system administration
stories that share useful lessons with the audience.

* New this year! We include a review and response period for authors of
papers and practice and experience reports (PERs) to provide better
transparency in the review process and to increase authors' chances of
acceptance into the conference. Authors of refereed papers and PERs
can use this period to answer questions from reviewers and address any
misconceptions about their submissions.

* Talks are 30- or 60-minute presentations by experts on a single topic
of interest to system administrators.

* Guru sessions: Q&A with an expert! Are you a guru? Share your
expertise with your fellow system administrators and answer questions
from the audience.

* Lightning talks are high-energy 5-minute talks on any topic related
to system administration. Have more than one idea? Sign up to give
more than one.

* Poster session: This is your chance to get feedback from your peers
on research that may not be ready for formal publication.

* Workshops are interactive half-day or full-day sessions that
encourage small group discussion and idea sharing on specific system
administration topics.

* The training program offers tutorials that are also half-day or full-day
sessions, but, unlike workshops, tutorials are generally intended for an
instructor to share knowledge, not to be open discussions.

* Birds-of-a-Feather sessions (BoFs) are informal gatherings held in the
evenings. BoF groups range from users of particular software packages or
products, through those interested in discussing current problems or
issues, to people interested in a particular aspect of computing.

LISA '12 takes place December 9-14, 2012, in San Diego, CA.

We look forward to hearing from you!

On behalf of the LISA '12 Organizers,

Carolyn Rowland, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
LISA '12 Program Chair
