The Linux Plumbers Conference focuses on a collection 2.5 hour microconferences that gather experts together to discuss and develop solutions to emerging problems that affect the Kernel, libraries and supporting system daemons that make Linux Linux. Last year there were six of these focused microconference on topics including: audio infrastructure, power management, and boot.
Many of the most successful microconference topics were suggested by community members not directly involved in planning the conference.
So, I need your help for 2009!
Head over to the Call for Topics and suggest an emerging topic in the Linux plumbing that we should discuss in 2009. Topics ideas can be submitted in the comments section of the LWN.net article.
