Well, I've already got a full-time engineering job, so an internship is out, but I would think about a position there... ;-) > The other real place is the IEEE SIG on file system > design, and the IEE publications there.

However, I tried to find a file system SIG at the IEEE web-site and can't put my finger on anything...
