Let's talk tomorrow after meeting (assuming Bart is coming). We haven't arranged a beer sig, but there are several places nearby. Will depend a bit on density of students (which folk can interpret in many possible ways!)

This may be worth pushing as an "event" for OCLUG and others (GOSLING?), say
on the "only 6 months left" date. It is a political and managerial issue
(Canada falling behind) as well as a technical issue. Perhaps we can get
some interest to run a 1/2 day or 1 day overview at one of the universities.

It would be a worth while effort for OCLUG.  I know we've had (at
least) two technical IPv6 presentations in the past.

It'd be nice if we could get TekSavvy to give a talk on their IPv6
deployment to homes.  Not to mention good publicity for them :)

I have slides somewhere which I used to give a 1h "how IPv6 differs
from IPv4" talk for one of my clients.  It's aimed at developers and
network professionals, but is pretty entry level stuff.  I can go
through that again... although there are other people far more
qualified than I to do that at OCLUG.
