Our author group for the CA-NFS paper that won the best paper award was interviewed by SNIA for their Podcast series, available at http://www.snia.org/podcasts/.  Here's a link to us:

TC Podcast - Interview with the Best of FAST 09 paper authors (CA-NFS).  

It's kinda like being on TV, just with a factor of 10-6 fewer people watching.  And the paper:  "A. Batsakis, R. Burns, A. Kanevsky, J. Lentini, and T. Talpey. A Congestion-Aware Network File System. Conference on File and Storage Technologies (FAST), USENIX, 2009."

The Johns Hopkins Institute for Data Intensive Engineering and Science (IDIES) had a kickoff event, which we have called the Inaugural Get-Together.  It's clear that IDIES needs some marketing consultation.  Anyhow, the Johns Hopkins scientific computing community got together to share project descriptions that fit under this aegis and talk about IDIES future activities.
