[bsdcan-announce] Works in Progress

[Dan Langille]

For the fourth year running, BSDCan will be hosting a Works-in-
Progress (WIP) session.  In previous years, this has been a highly
successful event.  In a one hour period, the audience is entertained
and informed by a rapid fire series of short talks on interesting new
or on-going work by individuals or groups. Slides are permitted, but
not required; pictures are highly recommended, essays less so.  Topic
areas include new open source software projects, works in progress
for future releases of existing projects, student projects, advocacy
and conference activity, and more.  Tell us about your latest and
greatest hack, and appeal for people to lend a hand.  WIP topics this
year make great conference papers next year!

The number of slots is limited, and experience suggests there will be
more takers than slots.  Sign up well in advance by e-mailing
<wip at bsdcan.org>. Send a one paragraph summary of the topic and the
names of the presenters. Let us know how long you'll be talking--no
more than five minutes, but less is fine.  The time limit is strictly
enforced, and you will be cut off if you run over!  The WIP session
is on the last day of the conference, 17 May 2007. The WIP
registration deadline is 9:00pm 16 May 2007, by which time we must
have received your slides in PDF format.  The chair this year is
Robert Watson <rwatson at FreeBSD.org>, contact him with any questions.

The WIP session will occur during the closing session.
