Microsoft has announced the 2006 edition of IFS PlugFest:
The Microsoft Filesystems and Filters team is pleased to announce IFS Plugfest #15. This event is scheduled to be held between April 24 and 28, 2006 at the Microsoft Campus in Redmond, WA.
If your product is using file system filters technology, this is one of the premier events where you can directly interface with the filter team from Microsoft. You also get to test for interoperability scenarios with other companies using filter drivers in their products. Please visit the Plugfest web-site to find out more about this event.

Thanks,
Microsoft Filesystems and Filters team.
A great reason to go to PlugFest is just to meet other filesystems developers. Filesystems have uniquely challenging interoperability issues, and PlugFest is a great way to build up a rolodex for times that those inevitable interops show up.
