Originally the track was going to be run by willy and I, but he had to drop out for various reasons. zab has stepped up to fill the gap. We're looking for people to propose sessions for the track. These can be informal presentations, discussion sections, or even a panel. In the past two editions, the attendees have ranged from technical folks from userspace projects to free software advocates who operate in the political and legal spheres. I think the most interesting topics would involve the kernel <-> userspace barrier, or technical deep-dives into how do the more complex parts of the kernel actually work, but I obviously have kernel-tinted glasses and welcome any strong proposal. Anyhow, the CfP deadline is April 28th, so please lob whatever proposals you have soon. The conference is in Portland, Oregon (USA) at the end of July, which ... I know is going to be problematic for a lot of people. This is a tough year for conferences (both planning and attending) so if you have questions, please feel free to ask them here or privately. --Darrick (and Zach)
