• The end of the USENIX Annual Technical Conference

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Wed May 7 06:40:08 2025
    On the 50th anniversary of the USENIX organization, its flagship Annual Technical Conference (ATC) is coming
    to an end.

    For the past two decades, as more USENIX conferences have joined
    the USENIX calendar by focusing on specific topics that grew out of
    ATC itself, attendance at ATC has steadily decreased to the point
    where there is no longer a critical mass of researchers and
    practitioners joining us. Thus, after many years of experiments to
    adapt this conference to the ever-changing tech landscape and
    community, the USENIX Board of Directors has made the difficult
    decision to sunset USENIX ATC.

    Many important technologies first saw the light of day at this event.
