9 The annual Maintainer and Kernel Summits will be held in\r
10 Vancouver, BC on November 12 to 15, in conjunction with the\r
11 Linux Plumbers Conference. The program committee is looking\r
12 for topics for both summits; read on for details on how to\r
13 submit ideas and, perhaps, get an invitation to the Maintainer\r
14 Summit.\r

47 This year, the Maintainer and Kernel Summit will be in\r
48 Vancouver,\r
49 \r
50 B.C., November 12th -- 15th. The Maintainer's summit will be\r
51 held on\r
52 \r
53 Monday, November 12th, in Vancouver, immediately before the\r
54 Linux\r
55 \r
56 Plumber's Conference (LPC) November 13th -- 15th.\r
57 \r
58 For the past few years, before 2017, we've scheduled mostly\r
59 management\r
60 \r
61 and development process issues on the first day. We then\r
62 opened up\r
63 \r
64 the second day of the Kernel Summit to all attendees of the\r
65 conference\r
66 \r
67 with which the Kernel Summit has been colocated, and called it\r
68 the\r
69 \r
70 "Open Technical Day". This is something that just made sense\r
71 in order\r
72 \r
73 to assure that all of the necessary people needed to discuss a\r
74 \r
75 particular technical issue could be in the room.\r
76 \r
77 Starting last year in Prague, we took the next logical step,\r
78 and split\r
79 \r
80 the Kernel Summit in two. The "Maintainer's Summit" is an\r
81 \r
82 invite-only, half-day event, where the primary focus will be\r
83 process\r
84 \r
85 issues of Linux Kernel Development. It will be limited to 30\r
86 invitees\r
87 \r
88 and a handful of sponsored attendees. This makes it smaller\r
89 than the\r
90 \r
91 first few kernel summits (which were limited to around 50\r
92 attendees).\r
93 \r
94 The "Kernel Summit" is now organized as a track which is run in\r
95 \r
96 parallel with the other tracks at the Linux Plumber's\r
97 Conference, and\r
98 \r
99 is open to all registered attendees of Plumbers. Much as how we\r
100 \r
101 organized the Kernel Summit "open technical day" in 2016 in\r
102 Santa Fe,\r
103 \r
104 the Kernel Summit schedule will be synchronized with the other\r
105 tracks\r
106 \r
107 at the Plumber's Conference, and it will be open to all\r
108 registered\r
109 \r
110 Plumber's attendees.\r
111 \r
112 Linus has suggested the following ten people as the core of\r
113 the people\r
114 \r
115 he would like invited to the Maintainer's Summit, which was\r
116 calculated\r
117 \r
118 from statistics from his git tree.\r

140 As we did last year, there will be a mini-program committee\r
141 that will\r
142 \r
143 be pick enough names to bring the total number of 30 for the\r
144 \r
145 Maintainer's Summit. That program committee will consist of\r
146 Arnd\r
147 \r
148 Bergmann, Thomas Gleixner, Greg KH, Paul McKenney, and Ted\r
149 Ts'o.\r
150 \r
151 We will use the rest of names on the list generated by Linus's\r
152 script\r
153 \r
154 as a starting point of people to be considered. People who\r
155 suggest\r
156 \r
157 topics that should be discussed on the Maintainer's summit\r
158 will also\r
159 \r
160 be added to the list. To make topic suggestions for the\r
161 Maintainer's\r
162 \r
163 Summit, please send e-mail to the ksummit-discuss list with a\r
164 subject\r
165 \r
166 prefix of [MAINTAINERS SUMMIT].\r
167 \r
168 The other job of the program committee will be to organize the\r
169 program\r
170 \r
171 for the Kernel Summit. The goal of the Kernel Summit track\r
172 will be to\r
173 \r
174 provide a forum to discuss specific technical issues that\r
175 would be\r
176 \r
177 easier to resolve in person than over e-mail. The program\r
178 committee\r
179 \r
180 will also consider "information sharing" topics if they are\r
181 clearly of\r
182 \r
183 interest to the wider development community (i.e., advanced\r
184 training\r
185 \r
186 in topics that would be useful to kernel developers).\r
187 \r
188 To suggest a topic for the Kernel Summit, please tag your\r
189 e-mail with\r
190 \r
191 [TECH TOPIC]. As before, please use a separate e-mail for each\r
192 topic,\r
193 \r
194 and send the topic suggestions to:\r
195 \r
196 ksummit-discuss@lists.linuxfoundation.org\r
197 \r
198 People who submit topic suggestions before September 21st and\r
199 which\r
200 \r
201 are accepted, will be given a free admission to the Linux\r
202 Plumbers\r
203 \r
204 Conference.\r
205 \r
206 We will reserving roughly half the Kernel Summit slots for\r
207 last-minute\r
208 \r
209 discussions that will be scheduled during the week of\r
210 Plumber's, in an\r
211 \r
212 "unconference style". This was extremely popular in Santa Fe\r
213 and in\r
214 \r
215 Prague, since it allowed ideas that came up in hallway\r
216 discussions,\r
217 \r
218 and in Plumber's Miniconference, to be given scheduled,\r
219 dedicated\r
220 \r
221 times for that discussion.\r
