Something came up unfortunately, can't make it this time.

[lukego]

@mwiget That's one more good reason to book a Snabb Lunch in Switzerland soon! cc @alexandergall @sleinen

[mwiget]

Yes! Looking forward to another Snabb Lunch.

I'll be giving a talk at Saturday 13:00 with one of my students: https://fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/writing_network_drivers_in_high_level_languages/

See https://github.com/ixy-languages/ixy-languages, might be of interest to some of you?

Edit: our talk will be mostly about Rust due to time constraints

[justincormack]

I am arriving fairly late on Friday, and already commited for dinner on Sat but let me know where you will be and will see how to meet up...

[dpino]

I'm arriving on Friday evening. I'm staying at Alma Hotel (near Grand Place), together with a few more igalians (although I think Andy is staying somewhere else). See you on Saturday at the SDN room!

[lukego]

Thanks @emmericp @dpino I updated above.

The Ixy talk will be a real highlight! Great lead-in to my talk too :-)

[lukego]

(What hardware interface will Ixy target next? i40e? fm10k? ConnectX? AVF? other? That's what I'd love to hear your thoughts about over a beer @emmericp.)

[lukego]

Updated the text above based on the notion that at least @lukego @petebristow and @eugeneia will meet up at JAM Hotel in the evening e.g. for pizza and a few beers like last year. Everybody welcome!
