We proudly announce the fifth Alpine Linux Persistence and Storage Summit (ALPSS), which will be held October 11th to 14th at the Lizumerhuette [1] [2] in Austria. The goal of this conference is to discuss the hot topics in Linux storage and file systems, such as persistent memory, NVMe, zoned storage, and I/O scheduling in a cool and relaxed setting with spectacular views in the Austrian alps. We plan to have a small selection of short and to the point talks with lots of room for discussion in small groups, as well as ample downtime to enjoy the surrounding. Attendance is free except for the accommodation and food at the lodge [3], but the number of seats is strictly limited. If you are interested in attending please reserve a seat by mailing your favorite topic(s) to: alpss-pc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx If you are interested in giving a short and crisp talk please also send an abstract to the same address. The Lizumerhuette is an Alpine Society lodge in a high alpine environment. A hike of approximately 2 hours is required to the lodge, and no other accommodations are available within walking distance. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic special rules including travel restrictions, mask and vaccination mandates may be in place in October. Please check the travel restrictions [4] carefully for international travel. We very strongly recommend all attendees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and will provide you with updates as needed.
