Hi All,

Thanks for attending the call today. Here are the notes from the meeting.

Netdev 1.2
reminder: paper submissions
 deadline is Sept 20

Linux Plumbers microconference (next week)
If you have volunteered to lead discussion of a topic, Alexei would like to
remind you that we don't want to be power pointed to death. If you have slides,
they should be for fostering discussion, so please bring only a few :)

on the website yet.
