They might involve prepared presentations, structured code reading, or a notebook-assisted whiteboard session. Advance preparation for such events is critical so everyone comes to the table with the right reading done so you can get to the meat of the matter. A dedicated sub-page will be created for each group to be populated by its leader(s) (see the [[DevSummit/201210/WGTemplate|template]]), that is where the details (e.g. prepared materials, a proposed schedule or the list of potential attendees) can be found later. There will be short report given on the results of each group at the Developer Summit track (on Saturday). //(Do not edit this section yourself unless asked to.)// ^ Topic ^ Leaders ^ Brief Description ^ Goal ^ Days ^ Notes ^ | [[DevSummit/201211/Virtualization|Virtualization]] | sbruno | Virtualization and Tools | Game plan for Bhyve, Xen and Dogfood | Friday | | | [[DevSummit/201211/InstallsAndMedia|Installation and Media]] | dteske,jpaetzel | Installer Software and Media Formats | Discuss current/future software used to install %%FreeBSD%% and possible new media-format support | Friday | | | [[DevSummit/201211/Ports|Ports]] | [[/MarkLinimon|MarkLinimon]] | Ports Working Group | Discuss current state of ports on %%FreeBSD%% | Friday | | | [[DevSummit/201211/HBAAndRAID|HBA and RAID Controllers]] | TBD | The new world of ZFS and non-RAID and HBA Tech | Recommendations for HBA friendly things | Friday | | | [[DevSummit/201211/Documentation|Documentation]] | dru | Documentation working group | Work on stuff needed for print edition of Handbook | Friday | | | [[DevSummit/201211/Desktop|Desktop]] | kmoore | Desktops and Laptops | Look over list of things from Desktop Working Group at Previous Sessions | Friday | | | [[DevSummit/201211/Clusteradm|Cluster Admin]] | [[/BenHaga|BenHaga]] (bhaga) | freebsd.org resource management | Current state of the cluster, current wants and needs in the cluster | Friday | https://admbugs.freebsd.org | ===== Talks ===== Tell us about your latest project, brainstorm on solutions to a hard problem, train us to use a new tool, make observations about a %%FreeBSD%% development process and how to improve it, tell us how your company uses %%FreeBSD%%, or coordinate activities! But, please do not duplicate a talk that you are giving at %%MeetBSD%%. If you would like to give a short talk in the Developer Summit track at %%MeetBSD%%, please e-mail [[devsummit@FreeBSD.org|us]] so we can add it to the talk table here. Talk slots are about 20 minutes long, including discussions. **The deadline for talk submissions is 29 October.** //(Do not edit this section yourself unless asked to.)// ^ Title ^ Speaker ^ Description ^ Slides, Notes ^ | Armoring %%FreeBSD%% for Enterprise Business | [[/DevinTeske|DevinTeske]] | Discuss various aspects and tools designed to armor the %%FreeBSD%% operating system w/respect to rescue/recovery, management, deployment and much more.

It contains a %%LaTeX%% source file that you can modify to create PDF slides for the %%FreeBSD%% Developer Summit. It uses the [[http://bitbucket.org/rivanvx/beamer/wiki/Home|Beamer class]] which is an easy-to-use extension to %%LaTeX%% for making presentations. You can easily install it by the following command (as root): <code> # pkg_add -r latex-beamer </code> or, with %%PkgNG%%: <code> # pkg install latex-beamer </code> This will install **Beamer** and **pdfLaTeX** that can be used for compiling the sources to produce the desired PDF file. <code> $ pdflatex my-presentation.latex </code> A few rule-of-thumbs when creating slides: * Try to make things legible, use large fonts. * Have title and closing. * Use less text, you do not have to include everything on the slides. (Prepare and) Do a demonstration if needed. * You have only a limited amount of time, having only 1 slide per minute (in addition to title and closing) is usually fine. * Sometimes images can tell more than pure text. * Discussions and meetings are the place where you might want to talk about the details. Contact [[devsummit@FreeBSD.org|us]] if you have questions or problems. ====== Registration ====== In order to attend, you must register in advance; this allows us to size rooms, order food, provide beverages, and make dinner reservations. We appreciate your cooperation in letting us know your plans well in advance of the event. Non-committers must be sponsored by a committer in order to attend. Due to increased attandence in recent years, companies are limited to one non-committer unless permission is explicitly granted by the organizers. A registration fee is charged for all attendees in order to cover the costs of the summit (rooms, internet access, snacks, drinks, lunch, use of A/V equipment, badge, shirt). This fee is //USD $45 per day//. Note that this fee does not include the tutorials so they have to be paid separately. Here is a list of the attendees and their guests at the summit. ===== Developer Attendees ===== //(Please keep sorted alphabetically by last name.)// ^ Name ^ %%FreeBSD%% ID ^ Dinner\\ 2nd ^ Notes ^ Reg. ^ | [[/JosephSAtkinson]] | jsa | yes | | | | [[/SeanBruno|SeanBruno]] | sbruno | yes | organizer | | | [[/AdrianChadd|AdrianChadd]] | adrian | yes | | | | [[/JulianElischer|JulianElischer]] | julian | yes | | | | [[/JasonEvans|JasonEvans]] | jasone | no | Observer | | | [[/SimonGerraty|SimonGerraty]] | sjg | maybe | | | | [[/PeterGrehan|PeterGrehan]] | grehan | yes | | | | [[/BenHaga|BenHaga]] | bhaga | yes | organizer | | | [[/JustinHibbits|JustinHibbits]] | jhibbits | yes | | | | [[/DavideItaliano|DavideItaliano]] | davide | yes | | | | [[/MatthewJacob|MatthewJacob]] | mjacob | no | Observer | | | [[/TimKientzle|TimKientzle]] | kientzle | yes | | | | [[/XinLi|XinLi]] | delphij | yes | | | | [[/MarkLinimon|MarkLinimon]] | linimon | yes | | | | [[/MarcelMoolenaar|MarcelMoolenaar]] | marcel | maybe | | | | [[/KrisMoore|KrisMoore]] | kmoore | maybe | | | | [[/NeelNatu|NeelNatu]] | neel | maybe | | | | [[/AlexanderMotin|AlexanderMotin]] | mav | maybe | | | | [[/DavidOBrien]] | obrien | yes | | | | [[/JoshPaetzel|JoshPaetzel]] | jpaetzel | yes | | | | Navdeep Parhar | np | maybe | | | | [[/AlfredPerlstein|AlfredPerlstein]] | alfred | yes | | | | [[/DevinTeske|DevinTeske]] | dteske | yes | | | | [[/RobertWatson|RobertWatson]] | rwatson | maybe | | | | [[/PeterWemm|PeterWemm]] | peter | no | | | ===== Guest Attendees ===== Developers were welcome to invite guests to attend the developer summit, subject to their tolerance for ceaseless hours of kernel hacking, and availability of space at the venue. //(Please keep sorted alphabetically by last name.)// ^ Name ^ Affiliation ^ Host\\ (%%FreeBSD%% ID) ^ Notes ^ Reg. ^ | [[/MichaelDexter|MichaelDexter]] | **Call For Testing** | sbruno | | | | [[/DruLavigne|DruLavigne]] | iXsystems/Docs | kmoore | | | | [[/JohnHixson|JohnHixson]] | iXsystems | delphij | | | | ADAM David Alan Martin | | jhibbits | | | | [[/DavidMaxwell|DavidMaxwell]] | eSentire | sbruno | | | | [[/MattOlander|MattOlander]] | iXsystems | delphij | | | | [[/HirenPanchasara|HirenPanchasara]] | Yahoo/Kernel Team | sbruno | | Veg | | [[/DaveRobison|DaveRobison]] | Vicor/IT | dteske | | | ====== Further Useful Information ====== ===== Catering ===== Dinners are paid on individual basis, but all the places are booked in advance.
