Thank you very much for this, Daniel. Safe travels, and enjoy your trip. I
hope to do it one day as well, to commemorate Dave (and I need to do a lot
of other things we were planning to do together, like to attend SpaceX
launch etc.)

Here is a reminder of Dave's Amtrak trip, if you want to refresh you memory
or missed it back then, in 2023:
https://lists.bufferbloat.net/pipermail/nnagain/2023-October/000286.html

Dave was heading to Netdev 0x17 <https://netdevconf.info/0x17/> in
Vancouver. His talks and music from the event, if anyone is interested, can
be found here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9RGX6QFm5E and
https://youtu.be/rWnb543Sdk8?si=9LAEGpfBo2M5RX9X&t=2599

All the best,

Frank

Frantisek (Frank) Borsik
