Hi,
We should give a talk on GNU/kFreeBSD at DebConf15. I'm happy to
volunteer for this, but also welcome others to participate, or just
suggest some additional topics to cover.
The deadline for submissions is 15th June, so I'm putting in a
request now for a 20-minute talk. If we have even more things
to cover, we could maybe still try to schedule a lightning talk.
Ideal outcomes of a talk from my POV would be:
* convince more people that Debian should support multiple kernels;
* encourage more people to get involved, explaining how;
* tempt some people to try it for the first time, or see how it's
improved since they tried it last;
* start thinking about how kfreebsd, hurd or other ports should fit
alongside official testing/stable suites.
This would necessarily include a demo / showcase of what jessie-kfreebsd
can do already. I'd also like to throw in:
* a bit of history;
* how the jessie-kfreebsd release was (will be) done, give credit to
those responsible;
* some principles about porting - as I see it - how we do/don't want
to do things.
Regards,
