FreeBSD Developer Summit (Warsaw): Vendor Discussions
(Add the exact date and time of your working group here.)
Overview
This working group was organized to talk specifically about vendor relations with FreeBSD, upstreaming stuff, feature requests, consulting major hardware vendors, etc -- things that are probably most applicable to only FreeBSD consumers. Thus we encourage every vendor who builds her products and/or services on FreeBSD to participate and possibly give a brief presentation on the current status and problems. This helps to address problems together with FreeBSD developers in a cooperative fashion.
- Bring together vendors and development community
- Generate a list of technologies needed by vendor community
- Identify technologies that vendors can put into FreeBSD
