MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org The Kernel miniconference at LCA 20007 is finally being organised and this is the call for participation: http://lca2007.linux.org.au/Miniconfs/Kernel The current schedule gives us 6 slots. One slot is reserved for 5 minute lightning talks - this gives us 8 lightning talks, where people working on kernel project and give a quick spiel on their current project. All these slots are currently open, remember 5 mins is one-two slides, but it might be enough to give a status update or drum up some interest. Slot 4 has been reserved for a Suspend to RAM workshop, where people can bring their laptops and we will have hopefully a few kernel hackers on hand to investigate suspend/resume problems. We don't promise anything, and we will have a few slides with pointers on how to debug these issues. I think Slot 5 should be reserved for a hacking session of some sort but I'm open to ideas on what this could be, we could do a live hack on some code or just get a bunch of kernel developers who are interested to fix something. The other 3 slots are currently open, and this is the call for presentations, We'd like some presentations targetting kernel hacking, kernel janitors, kernel newbies, and perhaps a using git to maintain a kernel tree type of presentation. We'd rather avoid any papers that mention Xen or that are being presented at the main conference. I know this is late but I'm sure some of you nice kernel developers that were a bit bored last year will relish the chance to talk to what looks like a large interest group (it surprised me how many ppl are interested in this stream..) The CFP will close when I get a few ideas of what people are submitting, and how interested people are, don't hang about, please contact me ASAP, as time is running out.. So can anyone interested in doing a full slot presentation or a lightning talk send me a short proposal at (airlied at gmail.com), and I'll discuss them with Matthew Wilcox the other half of the team... Dave Airlie.
