BSDCan 2010 proposals

BSDCan 2010, coming up the 13th-14th of May, has put out the call for papers.  The website says proposals start December 19th, but I suppose that’s just the day you start handing them in.

BSDCan 2010: May 13-14

BSDCan 2010 will be May 13th and 14th in Ottawa, Canada, with 2 days of classes beforehand.  Maybe I’ll actually make it this year, like I wish every time…

DragonFly meetup at CCC

If you’re going to the CCC, there’s several DragonFly people going, and they are working to rent an apartment for the several days of the event.  Follow up with Matthias if you’re going too.

“Thousands of times more secure than bcrypt”

Mr_Bond on #dragonflybsd passed along a link to Colin Percival’s post about scrypt, a “provably as strong as possible” encryption function that is designed to withstand brute force attacks.  This was presented at BSDCan 2009, but his post has more details and links.

DCBSDCon videos

Murray Stokely very kindly passed me a link to his summary of the 8 videos now online showing presentations from the recent 2009 DCBSDCon.

Of particular interest is Robert Luciani’s talk about M:N threading in DragonFly.  Yes, that’s the same Robert Luciani who is participating in Summer of Code with DragonFly to profile kernel contention on multiprocessor systems.

BSD event tracking

There’s a lot of BSD-related events and conferences happening; enough that it’s difficult to track them all.  Dru Lavigne has a very good idea: Twitter them at @bsdevents.

BSDTalk 170: McKusick at DCBSDCon

BSDTalk 170 has Marshall Kirk McKusick (His first name’s Marshall?  Thought it was Kirk.) talking almost an hour of BSD history at the recent DCBSDCon.  I’m assuming it’s going to be the first of several recordings coming from that event.
