Augusto,
Recently, within the FMOODS steering committee, we discussed the
possibility to "buy" Internet domain names for the conference (see below).
What is TC6's (or IFIP's) position about this?
What can I say to the FMOODS 2002 organizers?
Best regards,
Guy

Dear TC6 members,
The previous version of the TC6 report for the IFIP GA did not contain
the final version of the Student Travel Program in the Annex C of the
report. Now, this is updated and I attach the new version of the report
to this mail. Please notice that the only difference in relation to the
previous version is in Annex C.
Best regards

OK, but GMD Fokus (??? I believed that the abbreviaiton GMD has become obsolete ???) is even richer than
IFIP TC6 :-)

a. I believe that neither IFIP nor TC6 has a position about this for the moment being.
b. The mentioned cost of USD 35 per year is not prohibitivily high; very probably it is
in the 0,xxx percent range of the global budget (maybe even in the 0,0xx percent range).
c. The idea of buying a domain name is a cheap and rather efficient means (to my opinion)
for visibility and corporate identity. I support it.
d. We might even impose that the buying fee appears as a fixed cost position in
the conference budget.

Otto
Dear colleagues,
due to "popular demand" I redistribute the following Haiku poetry (see below).
The message was first sent only to our "nontechnical sublist".
Please send me a short message if you want to join that list.
As an extension of the Haiku poetry I would like to add a self-produced one
for our committee. Here is it:
The server is down.
Email quite sporadic. That's
communication.
Best wishes (and have fun with the following Haiku's)
Otto
**************************************************************************************
JAPANESE ERROR MESSAGES
In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful Microsoft
Error messages with Haiku poetry messages. Haiku poetry has strict
construction rules. Each poem has only three lines, 17 syllables:
five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, five in the
third. Haiku's are used to communicate a timeless message, often
achieving a wistful, yearning, and powerful insight through
extreme brevity. Here are some examples:
--------------------------------------------
Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.
--------------------------------------------
The Web site you seek
Cannot be located, but
Countless more exist.
--------------------------------------------
Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.
--------------------------------------------
Program aborting:
Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.
--------------------------------------------
Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.
--------------------------------------------
Yesterday it worked.
Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.
--------------------------------------------
First snow, then silence.
This thousand dollar screen dies
So beautifully.
--------------------------------------------
With searching comes loss
And the presence of absence:
"My Novel" not found.
--------------------------------------------
The Tao that is seen
Is not the true Tao-until
You bring fresh toner.
--------------------------------------------
Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.
--------------------------------------------
A crash reduces
Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.
--------------------------------------------
Three things are certain:
Death, taxes, and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.
--------------------------------------------
You step in the stream,
But the water has moved on.
This page is not here.
--------------------------------------------
Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
But we never will.
--------------------------------------------
Having been erased,
The document you're seeking
Must now be retyped.
--------------------------------------------
Serious error.
All shortcuts have disappeared.
Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

General info
------------
In just eight years, ICNP has established itself as one of the premier
conferences in the computer networking field. ICNP deals with all
aspects of communication protocols, from design and specification, to
verification, testing, performance analysis, and implementation. Protocol
functions of interest include network access, switching, routing, flow and
congestion control, multimedia transport, wireless and mobile networks,
network security, web protocols and applications, electronic commerce,
network management, interoperability, internetworking, home computing and
networks and digital broadcasting.
ICNP 2001 will be held in Riverside, California, at the Mission Inn, a place
filled with history. Riverside is located in the Sunny Southern California,
60 miles from Los Angeles, 45 miles from Palm Springs and 40 miles from
Disney Land. The city is served by three nearby airports: Los Angeles,
Ontario (California) and Orange County Airport.
