[Beowulf] If you can help ...

[Douglas Eadline]

Everyone:

This is a difficult email to write. For years we (Lara Kisielewska,
Tim Wilcox, Don Becker, myself, and many others) have organized
and staffed the Beowulf Bash each Monday night at SC.

The event has always been funded by the various vendors who
are part of the Beowulf ecosystem. This year, for what ever reason,
we have come up short on sponsors. Contracts have been signed and
we have cut back where possible. We still have a non-trivial shortage
of around $10K (which the organizers have to come up with)

So we are asking if anyone in the community (or your company
or organization) can help, please visit our Go Fund Me page
and kick in a few bucks. We even put together a few ClusterMonkey.net
premiums. Thanks!

https://www.gofundme.com/beobash-2018

TO BE CLEAR: The Beowulf Bash is still happening thanks to
generous sponsors listed on our invite page, please come
and enjoy yourself. Here is the invite page:

https://beowulfbash.com/

See you there!

Done and I reposted your request on LinkedIn as well.

See you there!

I got my start in HPC reading the Beowulf archives, RBG's book, and
posting silly questions here as I stumbled my way through things, so it
seems a small token of my appreciation to chip in.

Looking forward to it!

Correction: RGB, not RBG. Sorry! Prep for SC has left me...dazed and
confused.

I should have just said, "reading Engineering a Beowulf-Style Compute
Cluster," since it's still printed out on my bookshelf beside me right now.

Best,

ellis

I won’t be able to make it this year, but just kicked in $50. Good luck,
and I’m sad to miss it!

Likewise, donated and shared on LinkedIn and Twitter. Fingers crossed Doug!

All:

I wanted to thank everyone who helped with the Beowulf Bash
Go Fund Me effort. We raised $3070! This amount will really help.
Once the financial dust settles, I will report back
as to how this amount helped the Bash.

Thanks again to all those who helped. It was a great success.

Also,for those that had a chance to see the rough cut of
"The Beowulf Disruption: Changing the Course of HPC"
at our SC18 Beowulf booth, we are working on the
final release. A few more tweaks and it should be
ready to go. We will announce it in the coming weeks.
It will be released under a Creative Commons license
so it can be freely used by (and for) the community.

Hi Doug,

Post by Douglas Eadline
Thanks again to all those who helped. It was a great success.

Good to hear that the community helped, sorry it couldn't cover the whole
extra cost. :-(

Look forward to seeing the film!

All the best,
Chris
