As Jan has stated, this is a technical topic. But you can send it to this
list too. From Ted's original email:

    Related to the Maintainer's Summit, the Kernel Summit is organized as
    a track which is run in parallel with the other tracks at the Linux
    Plumbers Conference (LPC), and is open to all registered attendees of
    LPC.  The goal of the Kernel Summit track will be to provide a forum
    to discuss specific technical issues that would be easier to resolve
    in person than over e-mail.  The program committee will also consider
    "information sharing" topics if they are clearly of interest to the
    wider development community (i.e., advanced training in topics that
    would be useful to kernel developers).

    To suggest a topic for the Kernel Summit, please do two things. by
    September 10th, 2025. First, please send e-mail with a subject prefix of
    [TECH TOPIC] to ksummit@lists.linux.dev.  As before, please use a separate
    e-mail for each topic.

    Secondly, please create a topic at the Linux Plumbers Conference
    proposal submission site and target it to the Kernel Summit track:

        https://lpc.events/event/19/abstracts

    Please do both steps.  I'll try to notice if someone forgets one or
    the other, but your chances of making sure your proposal gets the
    necessary attention and consideration are maximized by submitting both
    to the mailing list and the web site.


The CfP is closing this Wednesday, so please submit it soon.
