The CalConnect Virtual Conference web page contains information about the timing, structure, and sessions offered for this virtual conference. .
The CalConnect Conference is planned for four days, Monday-Thursday, October 12-15, with the possibility of scheduling additional working sessions or testing on Friday October 16.
CalConnect welcomes The University of Wisconsin Madison as a member. The University was a member of CalConnect from 2004 to 2015, and we are very pleased to welcome them back.
The CalConnect Nottingham Conference has been rescheduled again, from October 2020 to April 19-23, 2021. All other arrangements (host, venue, conference hotel) remain unchanged. The Board has reached this decision after reviewing the current status of the pandemic, as available from the WHO and CDC, and concluded that the chance of having a successful in-person conference in 2020 is very slim.
The Board of Directors has honored Thomas Schäfer as the recipient of our tenth Distinguished Service Award.
Thomas became active in CalConnect in 2014 when 1&1 joined, and has remained intensely involved ever since on both the technical and organizational sides. Thomas and 1&1 hosted two conferences, CalConnect XXXIII Bucharest in 2015 and CalConnect XLIII Karlsruhe in 2018.
