I am CCing Lennart Poettering as one of the > organizers(?). Yes, I running the paper committee of the summit. At this time the talks schedule (sat-mon) is finalized and all slots filled. So we cannot add anything to that part of the schedule anymore. For the BoF/workshop part of the conference (i.e. tue-fri) the deadline for having a bof in the printed schedule is already passed, too. However, we kept a big chunk of the rooms for ad-hoc bofs, which will be handed out first come first serve, and registering a slot will be done via a wiki. You are welcome register a room from these at the conference. > I know this is on short notice and the Desktop Summit is normally > associated with GNOME and KDE and therefore coreboot seems out of place. > But in my opinion β if accepted β coreboot could reach *developers* who > might be interested in the possibilities of coreboot and do not know > about this. If we have a BoF room available (and I think we do) then I see no reason why coreboot should not be able to get one. I am only running the paper committe, not the bof commitee. If you have any questions regarding bofs, consider pinging Jon Nordby ([email protected]) directly who's looking after the bofs.
