[libvirt] FISL 11 - Abstract submited
Hello all, For those who do not know, FISL[1] is the Brazilian International Forum of Free Software (the acronym is in pt_BR). It hits the 11th edition this year and it's going to happen from 21st to 24th of July in Porto Alegre. Last year, Daniel Veillard was invited to talk about Libvirt. I was excited to see his lecture but ended up he couldn't come. This year, I volunteered myself to speak about the project on the event, DV said it was a great idea because he couldn't come again and nobody from project would do as well. The thing is, I submited the abstract for early review a few weeks ago, and I still don't know if it was approved or not. But I don't want to wait the answer to start working on the slides and the content of the lecture, need to get it done as soon as possible to make a great work for us all. My idea is to talk about (not on this order): * How libvirt works / macro view / cases * Internals The audience will be very technical, but some business guys will be around. That's why I put that high level information in the list. Also, I will have a event here in IBM called "Technical Vitality Day". I should talk about Libvirt as well, almost on the same way of FISL, some high level information and then some internals. So, I am opening this topic for comments and ideas. Any kind of help will be very welcome :) Thanks, [1] - http://softwarelivre.org/fisl11 -- Eduardo Otubo Software Engineer Linux Technology Center IBM Systems & Technology Group Mobile: +55 19 8135 0885 eotubo@linux.vnet.ibm.com

Nice. FISL is one of the biggest FOSS congress is Brazil, I think it's a good idea to have someone talking about libvirt there. I've submitted a QMP proposal too.

Dan P. and Dan V. don't you have slides from previous presentations to share?

IMO, talking about internals is not a good idea, explaining how to get started from user POV (eg. virsh) and from programmer POV (API & bindings) is certainly better.
