    SubjectMaintainers / Kernel Summit 2021 planning kick-off
    [ Feel free to forward this to other Linux kernel mailing lists as
    appropriate -- Ted ]

    This year, the Maintainers and Kernel Summit is currently planned to
    be held in Dublin, Ireland, September 27 -- 29th. Of course, this is
    subject to change depending on how much progress the world makes
    towards vaccinating the population against the COVID-19 virus, and
    whether employers are approving conference travel. At this point,
    there's a fairly good chance that we will need to move to a virtual
    conference format, either for one or both of the summits.

    As in previous years, the Maintainers Summit is invite-only, where the
    primary focus will be process issues around Linux Kernel Development.
    It will be limited to 30 invitees and a handful of sponsored
    attendees.

    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.

    Linus has generated a core list of people to be invited to the
    Maintainers Summit, and the program committee will be using that list
    a starting point of people to be considered. People who suggest
    topics that should be discussed at the Maintainers Summit will also be
    added to the list for consideration. To make topic suggestions for
    the Maintainers Summit, please send e-mail to the
    ksummit@lists.linux.dev with a subject prefix of [MAINTAINERS SUMMIT].

    (Note: The older ksummit-discuss@lists.linuxfoundation.org list has
    been migrated to lists.linux.dev, with the subscriber list and
    archives preserved.)

    The other job of the program committee will be to organize the program
    for the Kernel Summit. 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.
    First, please tag your e-mail with [TECH TOPIC]. As before, please
    use a separate e-mail for each topic, and send the topic suggestions
    to the ksummit-discuss list.

    Secondly, please create a topic at the Linux Plumbers Conference
    proposal submission site and target it to the Kernel Summit track.
    For your convenience you can use:

    https://bit.ly/lpc21-summit

    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.

    People who submit topic suggestions before June 12th and which are
    accepted, will be given free admission to the Linux Plumbers
    Conference.

    We will be reserving roughly half of the Kernel Summit slots for
    last-minute discussions that will be scheduled during the week of
    Plumbers, in an "unconference style". This allows last-minute ideas
    that come up to be given given slots for discussion.

    If you were not subscribed on to the kernel@lists.linux-dev mailing
    list from last year (or if you had removed yourself from the
    ksummit-discuss@lists.linux-foundation.org mailing list after the
    previous year's kernel and maintainers' summit summit), you can
    subscribe sending an e-mail to:

    ksummit+subscribe@lists.linux.dev

    The mailing list archive is available at:

    https://lore.kernel.org/ksummit

    The program committee this year is composed of the following people:

    Jens Axboe
    Arnd Bergmann
    Jon Corbet
    Greg Kroah-Hartman
    Ted Ts'o
