SpaceWire meeting



It has just occurred to me, while writing to one of the WoTUG committee
about it, that the SpaceWire meeting at ESTEC next month will be the
largest evidence of interest in transputer links since the early
euphoric days of the transputer and WoTUG.

So for one I thought you would be interested just to know it is
happening. For two, if you could come along and say something about an
application of transputer links (particularly the T9 links standardised
as IEEE 1355), you would probably be very welcome. I can't guarantee
that because it's ESTEC's meeting, but here is the information anyway.

Best regards

Paul Walker
