Hello, In the previous years we used to organize Power Management Mini Summits to discuss PM issues, the last of which took place during LinuxCon in Boston in 2010. Unfortunately, however, it wasn't particularly well attended and the participants generally felt that it had failed its purpose. The power management track at the last LPC, on the other hand, was generally regarded as interesting and successful, so there only seems to be room for one event devoted to power management a year. For this reason, there won't be a PM Mini Summit in 2011 and the LPC PM Mini Conference will play the role of the Mini Summit. To this end, in addition to the plenary sessions within the LPC PM track there will be a possibility to discuss specific problems related to power management in smaller groups. If there's anything you'd like to discuss or give a presentation on related to Power Management, please submit a proposal at http://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2011/ocw/events/LPC2011MC/proposals or simply let me know. At the moment, there are two session slots allocated. One of them will cover the power management development during the last year, but in that context I also would like to discuss things that are still missing and problems to solve. The second one will cover the idle power consumption problem and will be led by Len Brown. Len has a lot of experience in that area, mostly with systems based on Intel hardware, so if you want to contribute your own observations and/or results related to idle power, please let me know. We will have the time for one more sessions slot, so please give me your suggestions related to it. Also, please let me know if there's anything you'd like to discuss in smaller groups after the plenary sessions.
