REMINDER - LSF/MM/BPF: 2025: Call for Proposals

[Michal Hocko]

Hi,
this is a friendly reminder for LSF/MM/BPF Call for proposals - you can
find the original announcement here: https://lore.kernel.org/all/Z1wQcKKw14iei0Va@tiehlicka/T/#u.

Please also note you need to fill out the following Google form to
request attendance and suggest any topics for discussion:

          https://forms.gle/xXvQicSFeFKjayxB9

The deadline to do that is Feb 1st!

Please also note that we have decided that there will _not_ be virtual
attendance option this year. Nor we will be streaming sessions. We are
sorry if this is causing any inconvenience but we have concluded that
we will use our constrained budget more efficiently this way.

The deadline has passed but if you forgot or this slipped through then
no worries you can still apply but please do so ASAP. We are going
through all applications these days and will try to send invitations
ASAP so that people can start planning their travel.

Let me also remind that all the topics that are to be scheduled should
be posted to the mailing list (CCing track specific and lsf-pc mailing
lists). 

Let us know if you have any questions!

Thanks!

I've had a quick look around the hotel.

All four conference rooms we're using are on the Mezzanine level.  You can
take the elevator to that floor, or if you're coming in from the outside,
there's a staircase to get to the mezzanine.  The doors that lead from
City Councillors St to the mezzanine level were locked when I tried to
open them today, but maybe they'll be open on Monday.  Also the courtyard
door from Sherbrooke is locked.

Concerto (the MM track room) is separate from all the others.  It's a
little hidden; you start going towards the Milton brasserie, and then
turn right just before you enter it.  It was set up with dining today,
so maybe we get special MM snacks?  ;-)

The Opus, Tchaikovsky and Beethoven rooms are all near each other towards
the north end of the hotel.  If you take the elevator, turn right towards
these three rooms (and left to go to Concerto).  There's also a Vivaldi
room that I don't think we're using.
