All: We would like to hold a combined ACPI/PM, PCI focused microconference as part of this year's Linux Plumbers conference but first we need to show that there is enough interest and material that needs covered. There is a lot of activity in these subsystems so please respond by submitting presentation or discussion proposals that you would be willing to cover for consideration (respond to this mail on the linux-pci list for tracking purposes please). You should also feel free to submit ideas as proposals that others could cover. This is the "Plumbers" conference so topics concerning userspace interaction with the kernel and not just topics concerning pure kernel subsystem internals would be greatly welcomed. The initial call[1] only produced two responses. We understand that everyone is busy but without proposals the program committee will not be able to select this topic for approval - so please step up. If approved by the program committee, we will give precedence to proposals that bring up current issues that need attention, help, or resolution. We would like for the majority of the microconference to be "working session discussions" in which a current issues in/with the ACPI/PM and PCI subsystem space that needs solving are introduced and then opened up for live discussion by attendees - much like what took place last year during the Kernel Summit's PCI miniconf. As a possible aid towards promoting topics for submissions we have listed a few candidates that seem to meet the criteria in the microconference proposals wiki located at http://wiki.linuxplumbersconf.org/2013:pci_subsystem Please feel free to forward this invitation on to any others, or relevant lists, that seem appropriate.
