The directions map has also been updated since Keith posted the email
below.
The changes are as advised by Imperial College. Basically:

Best route is to walk up Exhibition Road (north of South Kensington
Station) and turn left into Imperial College Road. From there, follow
the signs for the Huxley Building for Registration.
Registration - Huxley CL Level 2 Foyer
Meeting - Huxley LT 340

worse, required in their office, has registered for the meeting,
which shall take place at Imperial College in London. Full details

Apologies for shuffling the talks around, but one of the things we try
and do at UKNOF is bring world-class international speakers to a UK
audience, and as you may imagine they (and me) have had more than a
little bit of travel hassle this past week :-( So we have made
arrangements for our speakers who can't make it to the UK to present
remotely, and have tweaked the running order a bit to suit the
speakers'
local timezone better. Thank you for your patience and understanding
on
this. I'd also like to thank NetSumo for giving us the use of their
WebEx account to enable this.
All presentation slides that have been received have been uploaded to
the website, available as links from the agenda page above, and the
remainder will be added as they are submitted.
We'll be doing the usual remote participation, with a webcast on:

Thank you to Tom Bird at Portfast and Brandon Butterworth at Bogons
for
their continued assistance with this.
There will be Jabber and IRC chatrooms for the meeting at:
xmpp:[email protected]
irc:irc.terahertz.net#uknof
PC members Nigel Titley, Andy Davidson and Mike Hughes will be
officiating in my absence, and a big thank you also to Will Hargrave
at
Imperial for hosting the meeting and connectivity, and to Denesh
Bhabuta
as ever for meeting admin and logistics.
Finally, thank you to our sponsors Brocade and DE-CIX for sponsoring
the
meeting, not least in the face of their people getting stuck in the
wrong place.
Enjoy this evening's curry, safe travels, and see you all online
tomorrow.
Keith
