[Ksummit-discuss] Kernel Summit Agenda -- 2nd draft

[Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>]

Hi all,

Here's the next revision of the Kernel Summit draft.  Please take a
look at the assignment of technical topics to slots.  If you see
potential conflicts ("I really want to attend topics X and X+10"),
please make a comment on the e-mail thread.  We may not be able to
accomodate all schedule requests, but I'll do my best.

The TBD slots are available for scheduling in an "unconference" style.
To that end, we will have lightning talks at 9am, so if you want to
plug a last-minute topic that get formally scheduled sometime on
Tuesday, or where you want to find like-minded people for a hallway
discussion, we'll have time for that there.  If you are interested in
giving a lightning talk Tuesday morning at 9am, I'd appreciate it if
you could drop me a note by Monday morning.


Cheers,

					- Ted
