IFIP in Montreal
I mentioned a couple of posts ago that I was presenting to the IFIP council in Montreal. As you can see from the picture below, the meeting went very well, and I got to hang out with some very nice people who are also some of the key figures in the IT industry - for example not just one but TWO past presidents from the British Computer Society. I didn't realise this, but you don't need to be a resident or even a national of a country to be a member of that society, so I will be rejoining the BCS shortly!
