Linux Plumbers Conference CFP open until April 30

The Linux Plumbers Conference call for presentations is now open. Proposals need to be in by April 30 and the conference will be held September 7-9 in Santa Rosa, California. "A good topic will cut across community boundaries, and should generate vigorous discussion leading to beneficial change. One excellent example from a past LPC was "From Naught to Sixty in 5 Seconds" back in 2008. This topic involved a sizable fraction of the Linux-related software stack, and required coordinated changes to many components. It set the goal of booting a netbook in five seconds, and within a few months actually achieved a three-second boot. That said, talks describing lessons learned during an already-completed implementation effort are also welcome, as long as they are likely to generate good discussion and to help others avoid similar pitfalls in future implementation efforts."
