Just a quick follow-up: I am also attending the co-located LinuxCon (http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon), so I'm in Portland the whole week. If someone is there only for LinuxCon but still wants to discuss something with me, then let me know beforehand. Ditto if you prefer to have some preliminary discussions before the Plumbers Conference starts. I will also update the RFC referred to above and repost it early September. That way we have a proper starting point for our discussions.
