[Bloat] Need more proposals for Linux Plumber's Conference!

[John W. Linville]

It looks like we have a proposal from Tom Herbert:

	http://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2011/ocw/events/LPC2011MC/tracks/93

But that doesn't look like enough to me!  If we don't get some more
proposals, this track will likely be cancelled.  Surely there are some
great minds on this list looking for a venue for their brilliance? :-)

	http://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2011/ocw/events/LPC2011MC/proposals

There will be any number of "thought leaders" in the Linux community
present at this event.	This is a great chance to have an impact...

I'm looking forward to see your proposals!

John

I will be meeting with jim after his talk at google today, and perhaps
we can nail a few ideas to the wall.

What did you want your talk to be, john?

Ideas:

1) Beating the Bloat - a progress update from the project

2) Latency matters - the real behavior of voip, gaming, dns, arp, etc,
under Linux today

3) Fixing the embedded Linux software maintenance model

Other suggestions?

Those all sound great -- although, #3 might be more appropriate for
the "general" track?

I proposed a version of #2 for LinuxCon, so I could probably cover it.
But I figured it would just be part of the "intro" session I've
already proposed.  Some more "in depth" version of some facet of #2
could be good, if you would like to propose it.

Perhaps Jim could be persuaded to propose some version of the talks
he has been giving?

I sent an email to VJ (assuming I had the right email address) in
hopes I might persuade him to participate.  If you know him, feel
free to use your own personal influence on him!

What I would really like is to see some of the vendors (e.g. Cisco
and the like) participating, and some academics as well.

I'll buy the beer? :-)

OK, we put two up at:

http://www.linuxplumbersconf.org/2011/ocw/events/LPC2011MC/tracks/93

And I put a third up (in the cloud track) at:

(an extended version of my recent talk at asilomar microcomputer workshop)
