Well, then perhaps having the > concept of holding Kernel Summit in India is not realistic. Rather, than "business class ;-)", i whould like to see comments about good quality video coverage of the KS, which (KS) is that, as you described here: > As Dirk has pointed out, the Kernel Summit is a little unusual > compared to events such as FOSDEM or FISL, where there are 4000-5000 > attendees, and the emphasis is on the power of a large number of > people in the OSS community.
