[Sorry for the cross-posting, I know many folks read all of the above
lists. And as always feel free to share this with other lists or folks
you may find appropriate.]

The AFS Workshops bring together administrators and programmers of
OpenAFS and Arla to discuss development and progress of software that
is growing both in use and usability.

The next AFS workshop will take place at LISA '02, being held in
Philadelphia.  LISA will run from November 3rd through 8th.  The AFS
workshop itself will be held on Monday, November 4th.

The primary focus of the LISA AFS workshop is on issues facing AFS
administrators.  Discussion of and questions about AFS development
topics are also welcome.

Previous AFS Workshops have covered such topics as various methods of
authentication, Multi-Resident AFS [MR-AFS], backups, client stability
and configuration, replacing ubik, contributed tools, as well as future
work on OpenAFS and Arla.  As some of the key players in both OpenAFS
and Arla attend the Workshops, these discussions can and do affect the
course of development.
