Announcement: First kAFS Hackathon, March 22nd Cambridge MA USA

[Jeffrey Altman]

AuriStor, Inc. is pleased to invite AFS and Linux kernel developers to
the first kAFS Hackathon.  The Hackathon will be co-located with the
Linux Foundation's Vault, Linux Storage and Filesystems Conference.

  http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/vault


PURPOSE:

The Hackathon provides an opportunity for AFS and Linux kernel
developers to meet and collaborate on the development and production
readiness of:

 * AF_RXRPC, the implementation of the Rx RPC protocol available to
   kernel modules and user-land processes via the socket interface.
   The Rx RPC protocol is used by AFS and AuriStorFS.  Rx would make
   an excellent rpc for Internet of Things as well.

 * kAFS, the Linux filesystem client implementation for AFS and
   AuriStorFS.

 * kafs-utils.  A suite of AFS management tools written in Python
   that make use of the AF_RXRPC user-land socket interface.

For more details on the current state of kAFS, AF_RXRPC, and kafs-utils,
please see:
