If you really want to get people up to speed on a topic, then you need a bibliography - which in practice may just be a few links to articles on the h/w involved, research papers on the s/w techniques, or just to previous mailing list discussions (especially if these were on a special topic list rather then on LKML). That would give people whose interest is piqued by the abstract a starting point to learn a bit more before the summit so there can be an informed discussion. -Tony - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
