is anyone giving a yocto talk at linuxcon in chicago in august?

[Robert P. J. Day]

  i would think *someone* would be doing a yocto talk at linuxcon in
august. if not, i'll propose one since i need an excuse to go. if one
is already on the schedule, i'll propose something else.

they are using YP to build custom stacks for their cloud servers. From that
perspective having a YP talk at LCNA would actually be a good idea. A talk
how one could use YP to build your own desktop or server distro may be
interesting and extend the reach of the YP.

  i think that's what i'm going to submit. tomorrow's the submission
deadline so i have to get something in quick. i figure i'll submit
something like "Building an Embedded Linux System Using YoctoProject",
using the BeagleBone Black as the platform example.

+1

I'd be glad to help with any talks anyone submits to conferences, and
if you do submit I'd love to know about it

I have done a POC generating very small specific appliances using OE and
lxc, in previous life which you then launch in thousands on demands on a
big server to do specific jobs like subscriber connections etc. I think
such a topic would definitely interest linuxcon attendees, I don't plan to
attend this one but if someone wants to take this and develop into a talk I
can help.

+1, a presentation like that would be more relevant (and more likely to be
accepted by the program committee) for LinuxCon than one that evolves
around the BeagleBone. That has a better fit for ELC.

It would also be a good opportunity that YP is not limited to embedded
devices.

  i'll have to wait until i get home and think about this, the
submission deadline is end of today so i need to decide quickly. i
like the above idea, and i would have until august to put something
together. so expect another post after work today, after which i need
to make a snap decision.

  at the risk of asking for help so quickly, since i've never used OE
and lxc, what would a short abstract of that look like? since all i
need is a suitable abstract for the submission, then i can put the
whole thing together between now and then.

  and now, back into the classroom ...
