Linux-Kongress 2009: New filesystems, optimised programming

,----[ Quote ]
| Prominent open source personalities
| presented a host of information about
| current and future developments in Linux at
| the Linux-Kongress 2009 conference. This
| time, filesystems were discussed in several
| presentations. Among the topics were the
| advantages of Ext4 and Btrfs, fast Ext4
| filesystem checks, and kernel and userspace
| tricks for minimising the time-consuming
| movements of read/write heads, all of which
| can speed up some tasks by several orders
| of magnitude!

Forget Congress, It's Time for a Kongress

,----[ Quote ]
| Since 1994, the Linux Kongress has been held annually in Germany, with the
| occasional detour to other lovely European locales. In 2008, Linux
| Kongress-goers visited the ancient and beautiful city of Hamburg, and
| apparently liked it so much they didn't want to go home — conference
| organizers have again chosen Hamburg as the site of the Linux Kongress, to be
| held September 22 - 25, 2009. Speaking of organizers, the conference is again
| being orchestrated by the German Unix User Group. OSDevCon, the OpenSolaris
| Developer Conference, will also be held in Hamburg, concurrent with the
| Kongress.

Linux Kongress 2008

,----[ Quote ]
| At the recent 2008 Linux conference, big names in the world of Linux
| presented current and future developments. Samba developers now want to
| combine the code for Samba 3 and 4, which until now have been developed
| separately. In future, HA and cluster developers want to bundle their efforts
| on specific modules. Dirk Hohndel showed off a netbook that boots up Linux in
| five seconds and in his keynote speech, he called on developers to orient
| themselves more toward the needs of users.
