Just hold these dates: october 11-13, 2005
We've arranged for the lacsi symposium, in santa fe:
http://lacsi.rice.edu/symposium/ to set up 2.5 days
for a linuxbios summit. The info on the linuxbios track,
hotels, etc. should be on that web page later today
or tomorrow. We hope to have vendor talks, and
discussions on where we as a community are going
with linuxbios.
The time of year is nice in santa fe, new mexico is
beautiful, the food is great, the hotel is very
pleasant: do consider coming! We'd like to see all of
you folks out here.
Vendors on this list, if you have something you'd like
to talk about, please get back to me.
thanks
ron

people of the three parties:
 
==== User Friendly ====
 
1. User Interface: What kind of default payload and/or user interface are we going to use? Do we want it to be command line or menu style?
 
2. User's Manual.
 
 
==== Developer Friendly ====
 
1. KConfig: Josiah England will show us his work on using KConfig to replace the current config tool.
 
2. Development Model: What is the svn commit and release process?
 
3. Device Object Model: People still complain about the complexity of the current device model. Can we make it easier to work with?
What is the impact of a new config too like #1 on the device model? How are we going to generate PIRQ/ACPI etc. tables?
 
4. Programmer's Manual.
 
 
==== Vendor Friendly ====
 
1. We need to discuss the possibility of signing N-party NDA with vendors for
their unreleased products.
 
2. How can we ensure 3rd party that our code is clean and free of legal trouble?

==== Hackathon ====
 
If anyone get inspired during the discussion, start implement your idea immediately!!
 
 
 
=== Oct. 13th ===
 
On the third day we will look forward further into the future:
 
==== Crazy Ideas ====
 
1. FreeFI: Possible name change and official FSF sponsorship.
 
2. LinuxBIOS as Linux: Ron just doesn't give up his old LinuxBIOS==Linux idea. He will show how he is recycling it.
