Hi,
here is a schedule for the Multiserver, microkernel-based operating systems devroom @ FOSDEM 2012
Thanks for the schedule, Jakub. I really hope that the guys from the other projects are going to take the reserve slot and make the line-up just a little bit more diverse than it is now. I would also not completely rule out Norman's idea of the demo corner, although I completely acknowledge Jakub's objections that a devroom should not be an exhibition with stands. But if the configuration of the room permits that, setting up a table with some machines running our OSes for the public to freely play with (silently) and perhaps stickers/CDs/leaflets to take away might not hurt. We will see in Brussels.
Note that the last item on the agenda is a panel discussion where we can discuss various topics among the projects.
As we probably won't have any impartial moderator for the panel (someone not affiliated with any of our projects), I suggest to make the panel discussion as a round table of answering initial questions we agree upon and then taking questions either from the audience or from ourselves (as the discussion progresses). I suggest the following initial questions to be answered by each project: * Intro: What is your project about and what are your goals? * What approaches and tools do you use in your project? (Note that FOSDEM is an open-source conference.) * How do you cooperate with the "mainstream"? (Standards, compatibility, etc.) * Evergreen: How do you tackle the problem of device drivers? * What interesting topics/projects/challenges can you offer to potential contributors? M.D.
