Distribution Kernels Microconference Accepted into 2019 LPC

There will be a Distribution Kernels Microconference at this year's Linux Plumbers Conference (September 9-11 in Lisbon, Portugal). "Linux distributions come in many forms, ranging from community run distributions like Debian and Gentoo, to commercially supported ones offered by SUSE or Red Hat, to focused embedded distributions like Android or Yocto. Each of these distributions maintains a kernel, making choices related to features and stability. The focus of this track is on the pain points distributions face in maintaining their chosen kernel and common solutions every distribution can benefit from."
