[talk] [membership at sdf.org: [SDF] Plan9 Boot Camp is BACK!]

[Thomas Levine]

membership than a new unvalidated account in order to do that. I am at
Patron Lifetime Membership Level (ARPA), and that was apparently enough.

The bootcamp registration has apparently at capacity, but they'll
supposedly run another in September.
