Re: [Xen-devel] Call for Proposals : XenSummit #4, Yorktown NY

["Jun Koi" <junkoi2004@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ian,

I would love to attend the summit, but the problem is that summit is
too close. I believe that can be a problem for others as well. Usually
we must have the plan in advance few months before, and it also takes
time to arrange the working schedule for the trip.

A question: are we going to have a summit around OLS or sometimes in
the summer? That would be helpful to know it, so we can prepare from
now.

Thanks,
Jun
