Not to that one, but the gods of scheduling are having a field day,
since on the next day, across the river in Boston, is another panel
discussing clouds at HPDC (http://www.hpdc.org/), and a keynote with
clouds in the title.

I'm a late addition to the HPDC panel, myself, having been invited by
Geoffrey Fox, its organizer, who has been seen in this group.

Given the panelists and the venue, I expect that the HPDC panel will
be a rather more down-to-earth technical than the xconomy one. E.g.,
HPDC has IBM's cloud CTO, Dennis Quan, who's really sharp; while
xconomy has IBM's VP of All the Cool Stuff, Irving W-B, who gives
absolutely mesmerizing, fantastic talks, but 10 minutes later I can
never remember what he said.

And, of course, HPDC will have an HPC slant (somewhat less from me),
which among other things will certainly produce a lot of "Isn't this
just another name for grid?" discussion.

So, go to Boston and get a twofer!
