15 days is probably too quick to get IBM AIX, but i *was* trying to
get them back on the calendar.
I can ask ...

Having just presented, i won't volunteer ...

i am considering presenting SANS's CC-SA slides on Shell-Shock (and
another sleeper-cell, web-trigerable bug in deep in Perl modules, but
"only" a DOS) to Boston.PM the 14th, the day before BLU.

ShellShock Slideware here

But that would be 3 crypto/security months in a row if you did that,
even with a different ring-leader,
.... so i can't recommend BLU do it
... instead i'll recommend we invite BLU to PM if we do it.
