WHO: Eliot Lear
Eliot Lear has been a Consulting Engineer for Cisco Systems since
February of 1998, primarily focusing on network management and quality
of service. Prior to that he was Silicon Graphics' Internet Architect,
responsible for design and deployment of Internet and Intranet
connectivity, access and security solutions. He participated in
several large scale corporate acquisitions. Eliot has participated in
the IETF for ten years, and is the author of several Internet RFCs.
THE TOPIC: Name Spaces and the Next-Generation Net
In the continuing efforts to support multi-homing and mobility on the
once and future internet, many good questions have been raised. One of
them is "Should there be an additional name space above layer 3?"
The Name Space Research Group, headed by Eliot Lear, Steve Bellovin,
and Steve Crocker, has been pursuing that question and are producing
an RFC that will be released in a few months.
Come and hear a preview of this work, and how it relates to work by
other IETF working groups such as Routing Research Group (RRG) and
Host Identity Payload (HIP).
WHERE: At Incyte Genomics Headquarters in Palo Alto
Nearest cross street: Page Mill at Porter Drive
just North of Foothill Xpwy and the 280.

Hi everybody! It's that time again, time for the June BALUG meeting!
This month we've got a very special speaker, a longtime BALUG alumnus
and self-proclaimed "Seating Nazi", Dave Mandala. Dave has moved to
Phoenix and he's been working on some very cool stuff for
DevelopOnline, an online site for innovators, engineers and
programmers to build electronic products over the Internet. Dave
faced a very M$-centric environment when he first joined, and he has
successfully switched the company to a computing platform that is
almost entirely Linux-based. Along the way, he hit a number of snags
and bottlenecks, that he and his team successfully solved. Along the
way he has saved hundreds of thousands of dollars for the company.
Come hear Dave talk about DevelopOnline, building web-based apps on
Linux, and whatever else he has on his mind! I, for one, am
definitely looking forward to Dave's talk.
As usual, please send an email to rsvp(a)balug.org letting us know how
many people you'll be bringing, and if you need any special meals,
like vegetarian or kosher.
When: Tuesday June 18, 2001 7PM-10PM
Where: The Four Seas Restaurant, Chinatown, SF (415) 989-8188
More info: http://www.balug.org/
See you then!
