Re: DebConf: D-I Workshops and a D-I talk to explain and motivate?

Quoting Luk Claes (l...@debian.org):

 Ok, D-I Work Sessions submited (though it would be good to have an idea
 on how long a session should be and how many we want) and several
 reminders sent to the DebConf organisers.

I have to warn that I personnally planned 4 i18n sessions which I
expect to be the leader/animator/cheerleader/whatever and threfore
might not be able to *also* be very efficient in animating D-I
worksessions..:-)...I now have a good idea of what Debconfs are for me
(talks too much, talks too much).



 
 Lets just make sure you can attend DebConf!
 
 Otavio: would you be willing to give the talk, if so can you please
 submit it in the Pentabarf interface?


Here also, I personnally fear the load added by a talk so I wouldn't
promise too much from me here.

I submitted a talk about Hardware Report, Database and PopCon.

Abstract:
 Hardware support implies two different points : Providing a Driver and
 configuring the system. We need a tool to collect information to
 improve both situation.
 - When Debian/Stable is prepared, we need to improve the devices
   support by improving the drivers and packages (identify most used
   devices, devices without driver, etc..)
 - Once Debian/Stable is released, the users needs some documentation :
   How a given system or device is supported by Debian/Stable and what
   extra configuration is needed to use it at it's best.

I am working on a tool that collects the current list of hardware on a
computer (through sysfs|lscpi... and hal|lsmod... ), then submit it to a
central database.
Once those data are loaded in a central database, we can make lots of
useful statistics about the devices and modules that are actually used.

I consider that this tool is closely related to D-I (I plan to ship a
D-I package, so people can report [failing hardware] from D-I. The
integration with reportbug will have to be discussed at that time)

DebConf: D-I Workshops and a D-I talk to explain and motivate?

2009-04-13 Thread Luk Claes
Hi

Official events have to be submitted in the Pentabarf interface before
Wednesday if I'm not mistaken.

Would it be ok if I submit D-I Work Sessions for during DebCamp? How
long and how many do we want in that case?

Does someone want to give a D-I talk during DebConf to explain how it
all works, how people can help and why it's a cool project to work on?

Cheers

Luk

I'd be interested in both but I STILL haven't hear from debconf-team about
the accessibility; I fear to have same problems that made me to not being
able to go to Argentina :(
