The Linux Plumbers Conference 2009 is now accepting proposal submissions. Proposals can be edited and created until Monday 22 June 2009 PDT (7 AM Tuesday June 22 2009 GMT). Submissions are invited for speakers in our microconference tracks as well as the general track session.

We have received a large number of excellent submissions for the Linux Plumbers Conference, thank you very much to all who submitted! In response to a number of people who requested a bit more time, we have extended the deadline an additional week to June 22nd. However, this new deadline is final. Any abstracts submitted after June 22nd will therefore be cheerfully ignored.

But in the meantime, please feel free to continue to submit your abstracts at the Linux Plumbers Conference proposals web site.

We have the following tracks ready and waiting to receive your submissions:

1. Audio: Lennart Poettering 2. Boot and Init: Dave Jones 3. Embedded Systems: Greg Kroah-Hartman and David Woodhouse 4. Energy Efficiency, Performance, and Power Management 5. Inter-Distributor Cooperation: James Bottomley 6. Kernel/Userspace/User Interfaces: Jim Gettys 7. Networking: Steve Hemminger 8. Security: James Morris and Paul Moore 9. Storage: Matthew Wilcox 10. Video Input Infrastructure 11. X Window System: Keith Packard

Other topics are of course welcome in the General track. The perfect Plumbers topic would feature a real problem whose solution requires the relevant community members to get together face to face, preferably producing a solution during the conference itself. This of course requires buy-in from maintainers and other high-profile people active in the area.

We have an exciting program shaping up! Tutorials include an advanced git tutorial from Linus Torvalds. Keynotes include Vivek Kundra, Federal CIO, live via video with real time Q&A (invitee, to be confirmed), and Keith Packard, Intel, X Window guru.

So, to be part of the excitement, please submit your abstracts by Monday June 22nd!!! - Linux Plumbers Conference
