I am indeed interested; I was thinking it'd be cool to do something
panel-like.  i.e., a presentation with a group of available -kernel folk
available to handle questions & participate in discussion points of
interest.  Though, there maybe enough content (and hopefully enough
interest) that we put together an ad hoc BOF after the presentation.
Let me know what you think.
