Subject: [ocuug] USENIX HotSec '09 Call For Papers Now Available
Message-ID: <49AD60A3.5050607@usenix.org>

The Call for Papers for the 4th USENIX Workshop on Hot Topics in
Security is now available. Please submit all work by 11:59 p.m. PDT
on May 4, 2009.

HotSec '09 will bring together innovative practitioners and researchers
in computer security and privacy, broadly defined, to tackle the
challenging problems in this space. While pragmatic and
systems-oriented, HotSec takes a broad view of security and privacy and
encompasses research on topics including but not limited to large-scale
threats, network security, hardware security, software security,
programming languages, applied cryptography, anonymity, human-computer
interaction, sociology, economics, and law.

To ensure a vigorous workshop environment, attendance will be by
invitation only. Participants will be invited based on their
submissions' originality, technical merit, topical relevance, and
likelihood of leading to insightful technical discussions that will
influence future security research. Submissions may not be under
consideration for publication at any other venue.

Submission guidelines and more information can be found at
http://www.usenix.org/hotsec09/cfpa

HotSec '09 will be a one-day event, Tuesday, August 11, 2009,
co-located with the 18th USENIX Security Symposium in Montreal,
Canada.

We look forward to your submission.

Hi,

I didn't see Scott posting this, so just in case.

Just as a reminder, this Thursday (March 12) is the second
Thursday of the month.

For those who do not remember, that means the Ottawa-Carleton Unix Users
Group gets together for an evening of conversation, beverages and food
(not necessarily in that order).

Details:

    Colonnade Pizza & Restaurant, 280 Metcalfe (at Gilmour)
    18:00 (6:00pm)
    Thursday, March 12, 2009

    There is a map
