Hi Len,
I would like to attend the pm-mini summit if there's a slot available. I
am interested in discussing:

a) the improvements to idle load balancing
algorithm on multi-node multi-core systems, for better power savings.

b) Use of some kind of light-weight CPU-Hotplug for power-management
on server systems.
