As previously announced there's an audio miniconference happening on the 21st in Edinburgh, meeting around 9am and getting started once enough people have arrived (Cirrus people, please let me know if we need to start later, some people have said they'll be arriving late so we won't wait for everyone):

(yes there is a typo in the URL). A number of people have proposed topics so I just went through them and pulled them into a proposed agenda, revised again after further feedback:
- Introductions - Community governence issues (Takashi) - Virtualization (Liam) - AVB (Liam) - Testing (Takashi) - PCM improvements (Takashi) - Granularity - Timestamping - SoundWire (Liam) - Integrating the ALSA control core (Sakamoto-san) - Obsolete 'dimen' member in container for information to an element - Remove limitation on a container for value array to an element - User-defined element set left by finished process - Expand restriction to the number of user-defined control element set per sound card - Another approach to produce language bindings by GObject Introspection (Sakamoto-san) - ASoC rate domains/core refactoring (Charles) - ASoC/ALSA core merging (Takashi) - DSPs (Liam) - Sound Open Firmware (Liam) - Byte controls (Vinod/Patrick) - Calibration loading (Patrick) - Exposing graph at runtime (Patrick) - Batching commands (Patrick) - AGL (Stephane/Ronan)
I hope I've not missed anything people suggested, the schedule is now looking pretty full but I'm hoping some of these topics can be relatively brief.
I've dropped Y2038 from the expliit schedule, since Arnd Bergmann (who's been driving a lot of the general Y2038 work) will be in Edinburgh and may be free to join I'm suggesting that if he's free we cover that either first thing or just after lunch and otherwise Takashi and I will try to coordinate with him during the Maintainer's Summit on Monday (unless others have a great enthusiasm for the subject).
What do people think? Any other topics? There's still time to sign up if you're interested in attending, you can sign up right up to the day of the event though registering early would help a lot with logistics.
