Here is information about the Spring 2006 Linux Power Management Summit.

At the 2005 Kernel Summit, Patrick Mochel requested volunteers for sponsorship
for this event. Tim Bird, CELF AG Chair, said he would see if CELF could
become a sponsor of this.

This page has some information about the possible location, date, time,
attendees, sponsors and other plans for this event.

/\ - this page is under construction.

[need to add other invitees here. Are all relevant segments represented? silicon vendors, laptop, virtualization, CE]

In addition, Patrick would like to reserve two more spots for developers. These
will be selected by him (with collaboration from those listed above), and
will have a strong community presence. Patrick will decide on these people in
the next three months.

=== Other invitation/attendee guidelines ===
Patrick wants 1 (and only 1) developer representative from each, which he will
select based on community presence and my knowledge of the organizations.
I may require input from some poeple within the organization. This
selection will be made within the next three months. More organizations
may arise as well.

For sponsors, Patrick would like at most 1 (and only 1) additional
representative, on top of the developer representative. I do not want more
than 2 people from any one company, with the temporary exception of Novell
which has emerged as a leader in power management development.

As we approach the date, we would like the name(s) of the representatives
from each organization. I will not allow guests to attend, and I am very
hestitant about having substitutions.

Patrick said:

<pre>
I do not intend to sound harsh, but I am very concerned about keeping it
as small and as focused as possible. I want everyone in attendence to
participate in some form or another, and I want every face to be known by
the end of the three days. This becomes harder as the size of the group
increases, hence my strictness.
</pre>

== Meeting Details ==
* Date: Preference was earlier stated as Jan/Feb.
* Time:
* Location: San Jose??
** Directions:

* meals:
* gifts?

== Agenda ==
The proposal is for a 3-day event: (Wednesday - Friday)

=== Day 1: Developer Workshops ===

This is an opportunity for us to discuss current events and
progress since the last time we met (in July) and resolve any
outstanding issues.

I expect each person to have 1 hour to lead a discussion
about a topic of their choice, the more technical the better. I
expect each person to:

- Have a presentation or prepared introduction
- Have a desired outcome, or at least a direction in which they
want to lead the talk
- Keep the discussion to exactly one hour

This will be finalized more as the time nears.

I expect this to be a private engagement among the developers so
that we can maximize the efficiency of the time. However, I expect
there to be developers from each distribution and vendor there, so
perhaps the developers from each distro and vendor could sit in as
well.

=== Day 2: Sponsor / Vendor Presentations ===

I anticipate this will be split into two halves: one half for
sponsors to present a topic that they feel is a pressing issue,
whether it is a hardware or software feature. I would like this to
be limited to current topics. The number of presentations will
depend on the number of sponsors, but I don't expect more than 5.
I would like to limit these presentations / discussions to 90
minutes. I would also like these to be very technical and given by
someone that is familiar with the technical topics.

The 2nd half would be reserved for upcoming / emerging technology
presentations. This would be an opportunity for vendors to display
future concepts that will have an impact on power management
infrastructure (e.g. new processor features) or will use the power
management infrastructure (e.g. new devices). This will be
dependent also on the number of vendors present, but I don't
expect there to be more than 5. I would like these to also be very
technical and to be limited to 30-45 minutes.

=== Day 3: Developer Discussions ===

This is an opportunity for the developers to discuss the topics
presented in the previous day (and to determine the best way to
resolve the issues). This will also be an opportunity for them to
discuss any remaining issues and to evolve any topics that arose
over the previous two days.

I anticipate the format of this to be 60-90 minute Birds of a
Feather-like sessions, the topics of which are to be determined by
the attendees and the topics of the previous presentations.

I expect there to be a closing session and/or reception dinner.

== Sponsors ==
* CE Linux Forum
* [others?]

=== Sponsor Benefits ===
In order to make sponsorship attractive, the following benefits are available to
sponsors of the event:

* ability to provide a handout or gift at the summit
* signage at the summit (a reasonably-sized sign will be allowed from each sponsor)
* listing of sponsor on all public materials referencing the summit (including web site, announcements, etc.)
* mention of sponsor at the summit
* sponsors may disclose and promote their sponsorship of the event
* a sponsor will have the opportunity to send a developer to the event
** This is highly desired. The vendors and sponsors should come prepared to talk about their issues.
