The actual meeting will be at 7:30 PM on 2021 August 10.
I think that the rest of the message is correct.

We are really lucky getting Alyssa Rosenzweig to talk.  She's doing 
important and tricky work providing open drivers for pervasive hardware.  
Reverse engineering hardware as complex as a GPU is astonishingly 
difficult.

The Linux graphics stack is enormous and I don't understand it at all 
well.  I really look forward to Alyssa's talk: it should fill in one tile 
of the mosaic.  I hope to ask Alyssa if she knows a Royal Road to 
understanding the stack.
