All, With Jon Haslam''s exciting news about the DTrace doc wiki (if you haven''t seen it yet, make your way to http://wikis.sun.com/display/DTrace), and with some of the discussion with the Apple folks, I''m wondering if the time isn''t right for something of a DTrace summit, perhaps as an unconference. The idea here would not be a DTrace user group (though that might be useful too) but more of a face-to-face meeting with people actively involved in DTrace -- either by porting it to another system, by integrating probes into higher level environments, by building higher-level tools on top of DTrace or by using it heavily and/or in a critical role. Is there interest in such a gathering? The numbers here are important: we would need enough people to have critical mass, but not so many as to dilute the content. (Maybe on the order of 10-20 people?) And I would expect that everyone coming would have something to say about what they''re doing with DTrace, along with some ideas for the future. The location would be in San Francisco, date and time TBD (but sometime in the new year). If you''re interested in such a thing drop me a line and we''ll figure out if we''ve got enough for a quorum. And if not, Mike, Adam, Brendan and I will just decamp to a nearby bar and call it a conference... ;) - Bryan -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bryan Cantrill, Sun Microsystems FishWorks. http://blogs.sun.com/bmc

I love this slight typo...

"your attending" should be "your attendance" - probably not the "you''re attending" that you may be alluding to; which would not fit the phrase/sentence at all (it would have to be "likelihood that you''re attending"; which would be OK). The best bit is that if "you" are "not interesting", then the event is not for "you". Regards... Sean. (OK, I know that the use of "..." is meaningless; and that "OK" should not be capitalised (UK (the correct) spelling)). </can''o''worms>
oh darn :) I was hoping that one of you would be at the first ever Sun Tech days in Sydney on the 4-6th of March ... or will you be?
