All,
With Jon Haslam's exciting news about the DTrace doc wiki (if you haven't
seen it yet, make your way to http://wikis.sun.com/display/DTrace), and with
some of the discussion with the Apple folks, I'm wondering if the time
isn't right for something of a DTrace summit, perhaps as an unconference.
The idea here would not be a DTrace user group (though that might be
useful too) but more of a face-to-face meeting with people actively involved
in DTrace -- either by porting it to another system, by integrating
probes into higher level environments, by building higher-level tools
on top of DTrace or by using it heavily and/or in a critical role.
Is there interest in such a gathering? The numbers here are important: we
would need enough people to have critical mass, but not so many as to
dilute the content. (Maybe on the order of 10-20 people?) And I would
expect that everyone coming would have something to say about what they're
doing with DTrace, along with some ideas for the future. The location would
be in San Francisco, date and time TBD (but sometime in the new year). If
you're interested in such a thing drop me a line and we'll figure out if
we've got enough for a quorum. And if not, Mike, Adam, Brendan and I will
just decamp to a nearby bar and call it a conference... ;)
