From Sebastian.Sumpf at genode-labs.com Fri Dec 12 11:41:28 2025 From: Sebastian.Sumpf at genode-labs.com (Sebastian Sumpf) Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2025 12:41:28 +0100 Subject: [FOSDEM'26] Microkernel and Component-Based OS Devroom: Accepted talks & schedule Message-ID: <65631fca-f314-4ef1-8cfb-4ba1d47a7834@genode-labs.com> Hello all, we would like to thank everyone for their proposals to the developer room. This year we received 18 submissions. However, the time constraint of half a day forced us to limit the number of accepted talks to 8. In case your talk was not accepted, consider joining the devroom as a visitor and please do not hesitate to apply for next year's edition of FOSDEM. To make the selection process fair and unbiased, we asked several people from our community to rank and rate the submitted proposals and hereby thank them for their reviews. The Microkernel and Component-Based OS Devroom will take place on Feb. 1, 2026 at ULB in room K.4.201. The tentative schedule follows (Brussels time / CET): 13:15-13:45 Making the NOVA microhypervisor fit for thousands of devices and interrupts 13:45-14:15 skiftOS: Building a microkernel-based operating system from the ground up 14:15-14:45 Rethinking CPU scheduling for dynamic workloads on Sculpt OS 14:45-15:10 Capability Based Security in Redox 15:10-15:35 Transactions: Making CMRX kernel internals lock-free 15:25-16:00 Practical Persistence on Microkernels (ft. PhantomOS) 16:00-16:30 Updates on GNU/Hurd progress: rump drivers, 64bit, SMP, software bootstrapping ... 16:30-17:00 Microkernels: The last 15 years in retrospective We divided the devroom time into 25 and 30 minutes slots. Please limit your speaking time to 20 and 25 minutes respectively to make room for Q&A and switch over. Also confirm your attendance in pretalx and check if your assigned time slot works. Please notify us ASAP if you have a scheduling conflict. Once your talk shows up on the devroom website at https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/track/microkernel you are good to go. We are looking forward to see you at FOSDEM, Sebastian & Josef From Sebastian.Sumpf at genode-labs.com Fri Dec 12 20:06:18 2025 From: Sebastian.Sumpf at genode-labs.com (Sebastian Sumpf) Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2025 21:06:18 +0100 Subject: [IMPORTANT UPDATE]: Microkernel and Component-Based OS Devroom In-Reply-To: <65631fca-f314-4ef1-8cfb-4ba1d47a7834@genode-labs.com> References: <65631fca-f314-4ef1-8cfb-4ba1d47a7834@genode-labs.com> Message-ID: Hello again, this comes a little unexpected: The Plan9 devroom, that will take place right before this devroom in room K.4.201 as well, has very few submissions and we were just offered to extent our slot by two hours. This offer implies: 1. We are able accept more talks 2. We need to reorganize the schedule 3. We can adjust your talk duration if needed To every submission that did not get accepted: Please watch the state of your submission carefully because the state might change to accepted soon. To already accepted proposals: Please have an eye on the schedule. Not everything is 100% certain at the moment, but it looks promising, Sebastian & Josef On 12/12/25 12:41, Sebastian Sumpf wrote: > Hello all, > > we would like to thank everyone for their proposals to the developer room.
