====== FreeBSD Developer Summit, June, 2016 ====== This page describes the June 2016 %%FreeBSD%% Developer Summit, colocated with BSDCan 2016, which took place in Ottawa, Canada. This was a by-invitation event. %%FreeBSD%% committers were welcome to register themselves using this wiki; non-committers must be sponsored by a committer to attend. Attendees must also attend BSDCan 2016 in order to access all devsummit activities. ====== Sponsors ====== Our annual BSDCan developer summit would not be possible without the generous support of sponsors. ===== Gold Sponsors ===== [[http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org|{{devsummit/201606/freebsd_foundation.jpeg}}]] The [[http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/|FreeBSD Foundation]] covers several expenses including rooms for the event. In addition, the %%FreeBSD%% Foundation also covers travel expenses for several attendees. You can help support the %%FreeBSD%% Foundation by [[http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/donate/|donating]]. [[http://www.dell.com|{{devsummit/201606/dell.png}}]] ===== Silver Sponsors ===== [[http://www.azure.com/opensource|{{devsummit/201606/microsoft.png}}]] [[http://ssh.com|ssh.com]] ===== T-Shirt Sponsor ===== [[http://www.tarsnap.com/|{{devsummit/201606/tarsnap.png}}]] ===== Dinner Sponsor ===== [[http://www.intel.com/|{{devsummit/201606/intel.png}}]] ===== BSDCan ===== [[http://www.bsdcan.org/|BSDCan]] provides logistical support, including organizing rooms for the event and for developers to stay in. BSDCan also covers board and travel for BSDCan speakers. %%FreeBSD%% developers can help support the summit by speaking at BSDCan. You can also help support BSDCan and the developer summit by encouraging people to attend the conference, and especially to attend tutorials. ====== IRC ====== Many of the developer summit attendees hang out on #devsummit on EFnet during the summit (as well as BSDCan itself). ====== Schedule ====== The %%FreeBSD%% developer summit will take place on the 8th and 9th of June on the same days as the BSDCan tutorials (sorry!). Many developers will arrive on the night of the 7th and meet for dinner and drinks before things kick off. Most developers will stay on through BSDCan to give and attend talks. It is an excellent conference--a good %%FreeBSD%% developer showing has countless benefits, not least the opportunity to tell the world what we're doing.

A two-day hackathon covering various projects will be held in parallel on Wednesday and Thursday. Additional short talks will be given during a %%FreeBSD%% Developers' Summit track at BSDCan on Friday, June 10th. The events in this track will be part of BSDCan and require a BSDCan registration. All rooms other than the hacking lounge will have AV equipment. The Desmarais Building (DMS) is located northwest of the Residence building on Laurier Avenue. Please arrive by 8:45am for the morning sessions so that we can get started around 9:00am. Attendees will be able to pick up badges and T-shirts from 8:00am to 9:00am at DMS 1160 on Wednesday and Thursday. The hackathon sessions will be held in room L140 in the Residence Hall. During the evenings this room will become the hacker lounge for general hanging. The dinner on Wednesday evening will also be in this room. **Note:** In order to attend a working group meeting you **MUST** contact the working group organizer and be approved to attend. The goal is to keep each working group small and focused. Lunch will be served in DMS 1160 on both Wednesday and Thursday. **June 8th (Wednesday)** | Location | **DMS 1160** | **DMS 1130** | **DMS 1140** | **L140** | | Track | **General** | **User Interaction** | **Kernel** | **Hackathon** | | 08:00-09:00 | Setup / Badges | ||| | 09:00-09:30 | Opening | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 09:30-10:30 | %%FreeBSD%% in Microsoft Azure | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 10:30-11:00 | Break | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 11:00-12:00 | Intel %%QuickAssist%% Driver - Overview and %%FreeBSD%% port | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 12:00-13:00 | Lunch | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 13:00-14:30 | [[DevSummit/201606/Toolchain|Toolchain]] | [[DevSummit/201606/Documentation|Documentation]] | [[DevSummit/201606/PMC|PMC]] | Hackathon | | 14:30-15:00 | Break |||| | 15:00-16:00 | [[DevSummit/201606/Toolchain|Toolchain]] | [[DevSummit/201606/Documentation|Documentation]] | [[DevSummit/201606/PMC|PMC]] | Hackathon | | 16:00-18:00 | Free Time |||| | 18:00-20:00 | ||| Dinner | **June 9th (Thursday)** | Location | **DMS 1160** | **DMS 1130** | **DMS 1140** | **L140** | | Track | **General** | **User Interaction** | **Kernel** | **Hackathon** | | 08:00-09:00 | Setup / Breakfast / Badges | ||| | 09:00-10:30 | [[https://pad.riseup.net/p/FreeBSD_11_12|FreeBSD 11.0 / 12.0]] | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 10:30-11:00 | Break | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 11:00-12:00 | Vendor Summit | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 12:00-13:15 | Lunch | ::: | ::: | ::: | | 13:15-13:30 | ||| Group Photo | | 13:30-15:00 | General Hacking | [[DevSummit/201606/TeachingFreeBSD|Teaching FreeBSD]] | [[DevSummit/201606/Transport|Transport]] | Hackathon | | 15:00-15:30 | Break |||| | 15:30-16:30 | General Hacking \\ CI Hacking | [[DevSummit/201606/TeachingFreeBSD|Teaching FreeBSD]] | [[DevSummit/201606/Transport|Transport]] | Hackathon | **June 10th (Friday)** | Location | **DMS 1130** || | 10:00-10:30 | TBA | TBA | | 10:30-11:00 | TBA | TBA | | 11:00-11:15 | Break || | 11:15-11:45 | pNFS Server for %%FreeBSD%% | [[/RickMacklem|RickMacklem]] | | 11:45-12:15 | %%FreeBSD%%/RISC-V | [[/RuslanBukin|RuslanBukin]] | | 12:15-13:30 | Lunch || | 13:30-14:00 | jobd | Mark Heily | | 14:00-14:30 | TBA | TBA | | 14:30-14:45 | Break || | 14:45-15:15 | Filter Drivers in %%FreeBSD%% | Raviprakash Darbha | | 15:15-15:45 | Concurrency Kit | Samy Al Bahra | | 15:45-16:00 | Break || ===== Working Groups ===== These sessions are intended to get developers with common areas of interest or specific projects in mind together for collaboration and hacking. They might involve prepared presentations, structured code reading, or a notebook-assisted whiteboard session.

Here are some suggestions that may make planning easier: | **Arrival date** | 7th June 2016 | | **Departure date** | 12th June 2016 | | **Travel method** | If traveling from outside Ottawa, fly into Ottawa's international airport (YOW), possibly transferring in Toronto (YYZ). Air Canada partners with United Airlines, and has direct flights from many US cities and London Heathrow (LHR) as well as Frankfurt (FRA) into Ottawa. | | **Visas** | Many attendees will be able to use the Visa Waiver program, but check before traveling. If you need a formal invitation letter (never hurts), let us know. | | **Where to stay** | Stay in the university residence halls, or if you really want a hotel, Les Suites. The university residence has two-person suites with private bedrooms but a shared bathroom and kitchenette, and is both clean and comfortable, as well as on-site for the summit. | [[DevSummit/201606/accommodation|Extra rooms to share at the university residence halls]] Remember that you must **separately register for BSDCan** (even if you are a BSDCan speaker); visit the [[https://www.bsdcan.org/2016/register.php|BSDCan web page]] for details. ===== To/from Ottawa International ===== ==== Public transport ==== Bus [[http://www.octranspo1.com/routes?lang=en&date=20160605&rte=97|line 97]] from Airport to Bayshore & Bells Corners. Runs about 3 times per hour. Bus-stop is right in front of the Airport building at the far right. Bus-stop Campus is temporarily closed for road-works, you'll have to use the uOttawa/Laurier stop at the Bus Station. Tickets: can be bought at the "Info" desk in the Airport building, to the left of the entrances. You'll need 2 tickets for a single ride (unconfirmed). Usually tickets are bought in a pack of 6. Tickets are CAD 1.60 each. ===== Mobile 3G/4G SIM cards ===== [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rideau_Centre|Rideau Centre]] is a short walk from the University of Ottawa Campus. There's a large number of shops (brand shops and and independent) where you can get a SIM Card. In general you'll have to pay for the SIM-card separately (ca. 10CAD) plus the plan you want. At the [[http://www.wirelesswave.ca|WirelessWave]], [[/BernardSpil|I]] managed to talk the lady into giving me the SIM for free with a [[http://www.fido.ca/|Fido]] 150MB plan for 10CAD.
