IMHO it definitely is. The mailing list discussion when I proposed that
session here shows there were a lot of people interested in regression
tracking or bug reporting/qa in general. And it was something that was
discussed in the past years on the kerenl or maintainers summit all the
time afaics from lwn.net reporting; sometimes it special sessions,
sometimes it just came up somewhere.

And FWIW: I just plan to speak a few minutes about my work and then go
over to a more discussion style format to ask people how to improve
things. From there we can also drift to some of the other topics that
came up on this list when I proposed the sessions (I wanted to mentioned
those anyway as a sort of reminder).

Well, I'm the new kid in town, so maybe I'm not. Rafael (CCed) is
interested in this topic as well and is more experienced in the format.
I had thought about asking him to join me on stage anway if he wants, as
I expected him to be around. But if you think he's better suited for
leading this session I can hand over to him. no worries.
