2009.1: Mick Creane, 2009 Program Chair (00:00 +0100)
The first FIRST podcast is an interview with Mick Creane who is the 2009 FIRST Conference Program Chair. Mick's job has been to organize the conference overall and find interesting people to come speak at the event. He gives us a litttle background into why this year's topic is "Aftermath: crafts and lessons of incident recovery". Many of us think of 'incident response' as a computer security issue, but as Mick points out in the podcast, it's at least as much about the physical recovery after an incident as it is the virtual recovery. He also talks about some of the folks who'll be speaking and why it's so important that an event like this continues to be international, not just US or north american.
