Hi, I don't know if anyone has heard of Lustre (http://www.clusterfs.com/lustre.html); it is a high performance, open source, clustering filesystem for linux. Phil Schwan from Clusterfs is to visit Australia on business and will have an evening free in which he is prepared to give a talk and a Q&A on lustre.
It will be a fairly informal affair but I think a very informative one. Due to Phil's schedule the date is not fixed and is not likely to be until much nearer the date. Please let me know if anyone is interested and I will organise a room. rgh -- "It is possible to make things of great complexity out of things that are very simple.
