[Ksummit2003-attendees] Draft agenda for the kernel summit

[Theodore Ts'o]

The following draft agenda is not yet cast in stone, and in particular,
not all of the slots have someone set up to give a 5-10 minute kickoff
presentation to start off a particular topic.  You'll notice that each
of the slots are 30 minutes long, instead of an hour as in previous
years.  That's so we can fit in more topics.  Also, given that many of
these will be more "brainstorm-y", since we're about to be starting a
new development cycle, shorter slots seemed to make more sense.  

If it turns out that some specialized topic needs more time, we do have
BOF rooms reserved in the evenings --- and of course, we have the rest
of the OLS to discuss particularly interesting and knotty problems.  The
basic goal here is to kick off discussions, and not necessarily to come
to a conclusion.

If you have any suggestions, or feel that some topic that you feel
should be covered is missing, and it's absolutely important that it be
covered, please do let us know.  In addition, if you feel that you might
like to lead a 5-10 minute "kickoff" presentation on a particular topic
just to get the discussion going, let me know.  If we have multiple feel
who feel that they should be involved in a particular topic, so much the
better; I'll put them in touch with each other, so you can work out
something a joint kickoff presentation.  Remember, it doesn't have to be
very fancy, and it doesn't have to be very long.  Just something to get
the conversation started...

I'm looking forward to seeing you all in Ottawa!
