The (November) 2016 Tahoe-LAFS Summit

This is a loosely organized gathering of Tahoe-LAFS developers, enthusiasts, and perhaps some hecklers.

Dates / Location

Tuesday+Wednesday 2016-11-08 and 2016-11-09, 9am-5pm.

We're meeting in the "Board Room" of the ​Mechanics Institute Library, 57 Post St, San Francisco, CA (next to the Montgomery St BART station).

The room has wifi, a whiteboard, and a projector screen. Brian will bring a small projector. There are plenty of restaurants and bars nearby for later in the evening.

We'll try to set up videochat so remote folks can join in the fun: contact us on IRC (#tahoe-lafs on freenode) and we'll make something work.
