[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] RE: London meeting logisticsDavid, Your original post regarding the schedule for IPS meetings (http://ips.pdl.cs.cmu.edu/mail/msg04695.html) speculated that the IPS FC meeting would include security discussions. Is this still the intent? If so, that makes the group of people inconvenienced by separate meeting larger - those that are only interested in iSCSI would now have to also attend the T10-related IPS meeting.
