One fixture of the memory-management track at the Linux Storage, Filesystem, and Memory-Management Summit is a discussion with subsystem maintainer Andrew Morton on how the development process is going. The 2019 version indicated that the memory-management developers are mostly happy with how the process is working, but there are still things that they would like to see changed.
