[ANNOUNCE] Alpine Linux Persistence and Storage Summit 2021

[Max Gurtovoy]

Hi John and Christoph,
Unfortunately,  I won't attend this year conference due to our company policy for travelling during COVID-19.

There is no special government restrictions for travelling to/from Austria from/to Israel BTW.

Hopefully, I will be able to attend next year 😊

-Max.

Thanks for the effort to restart this conference Christoph.  I really wanted to come this year, but it seems that the EU is tightening down travel restrictions again.  And even if I can get into the EU, I may not be able to get back into the USA.  The current travel regulations, in both the EU and in the US, are set to expire at the end of September - and there is much speculation in the media that the next set of regulations will introduce further restrictions.

Question:  is anyone from the USA planning to attend ALPSS this year?  Any one from Israel planning to attend?  How about Japan or Asia?

Note: LSF-MM has been postponed again. I think the stated reason on their web site says it all.
