Linux Plumbers Conference

The Linux Plumbers Conference (LPC) is a developer conference for the open source community. The LPC brings together the top developers working on the plumbing of Linux - kernel subsystems, core libraries, windowing systems, etc. - and gives them three days to work together on core design problems. The conference is divided into several working sessions focusing on different plumbing topics, as well as a general paper track.

Submissions for the Refereed Track, Kernel Summit, BoF and Microconferences are now open. Please read our latest blog post for tips to contribute to LPC.
