OK,first news, AMD is now a "Silver" sponsor of the Denver summit. I can not thank AMD enough. I don't know if all of us put together can thank AMD enough. But, we should try!
Thanks, AMD!
Here is a very tentative schedule. I think it's going to be pretty exciting, I intend to bring as much hardware as I can for us to work on. I still need to line up breaks, lunch, dinner, etc. with the main workshop; this is still a bit tentative.
1-2 Ron opens the meeting and discusses how things went in '07 and late '06 from the last meeting. I think the Big News is the meteoric rise of v3, how nice it is, and the growth in our platforms. Also talk about other things I learned from talks with vendors. You'll be amazed by something I learned at SC 07 ...
2-230 break
230-400 Stepan talks about - the automated testbed, what it is, how to set it up. The automated testbed is a quite amazing resource we should all understand. - the GSOC projects - his work with the german army - his recent ports
4-430 break 430-rest of day hack session -- Please, bring your hardware!
Friday
0830-1000 AMD talks about: - consumer issues - what's going on - new ports this year - "Fam 10". - Jordan's fantastic new library and his use of Uwe's micro-curses 1000-1030 break 1030-1200 Marc talks about his work at Sun with the simulator 1200-0130 lunch 0130- 0300 an overview of v3, from the smallest to the large bits. Sample v3 build/burn session 0300-0330 break 0330- 0400 open questions (please add some) 1. how do we tell when a board is good enough to move from v2 to v3? What's the test? 2. How do we make life easy for vendors? 3. What pending issues are there.
0400-0500 The view from the FSF -- what's going on, etc.
Note: I hope to have one or two more hardware speakers. I welcome volunteers from this list. We're a friendly group and always interested in hearing more.
saturday -- hack, hack, hack. Please bring hardware for this session. We hope to really do more improvement on v3! sunday -- more hacking at starbucks :-) (but Ron has to leave, sadly, about 3 or 4 pm)
Hope to see you there. This is going to be a good one.
Thanks
ron
Where does one register for the Denver Summit?
coreboot.org/Current_events doesn't have a link?

oh shoot, we should put that there!

Don't forget, when registering, to check the 'linuxbios summit' check box.
