Exactly for the collaboration effects. Why not do it similar to how Plumbers and Linuxcon were done last year? Have them follow each other at the same location, so people interested in both can attend both. > Yeah, but my real goal is to have you (and all of the other KVM folks) spend less time with kernel folks and more time with folks in the higher level parts of the virtualization stack :-) I think 10% of our future challenges are how we interact with the kernel. I think we need to focus a bit more on the other 90% interactions--I think we have the 10% covered pretty well already. Regards, Anthony Liguori > Alex > >
