Rick Moen suggested we have a Cypherpunks meeting in August, so: SF Bay Area Cypherpunks August 2004 Physical Meeting Announcement General Info: DATE: Saturday 14 August 2004 TIME: 12:00 - 5:00 PM (Pacific Time) PLACE: Stanford University Campus - Tressider Union courtyard Agenda: "Our agenda is a widely-held secret." (This will be our first meeting since April 2003, so the agenda is somewhat up for grabs. Among upcoming events to note is the 7th annual Information Security Conference, aka ISC04, Sept. 27-29 at Xerox PARC, http://isc04.uncc.edu/ . Also of note: Our friendly Federalistas seem to be imposing unprecedented visa restrictions on visiting foreign cryptographers. Is it time for all international cryptography conferences to move off-shore? See: http://www.schneier.com/crypto-gram-0407.html#3 ) As usual, this is an "Open Meeting on US Soil", and the public is invited. Location Info: The meeting location will be familiar to those who've been to our outdoor meetings before, but for those who haven't been, it's on the Stanford University campus, at the tables outside Tressider Union, at the end of Santa Theresa, just west of Dinkelspiel Auditorium. We meet at the tables on the west side of the building, inside the horseshoe "U" formed by Tresidder. Ask anyone on campus where Tressider is and they'll help you find it. Food and beverages are available at the cafe inside Tresidder.
