The Linux Plumbers Conference is a working conference. LPC brings
together the top developers working on the “plumbing” of Linux –
kernel subsystems, core libraries, windowing system, etc. – and gives
them three days to work together on core design problems. The
conference is organized into several half-day microconferences
focusing on individual subsystems. Since the microconfs are
co-located, developers can meet face-to-face with experts from other
subsystems to solve problems that span project boundaries. This kind
of cross-project collaboration usually only happens in the unofficial
“hallway track” at conferences. LPC makes the hallway track a
priority.
