[ANNOUNCE] media mini-summit on May, 2 in San Jose

[ANNOUNCE] media mini-summit on May, 2 in San Jose

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

As discussed on our IRC #v4l channels, most of the core developers will be
in San Jose - CA - USA for the Embedded Linux Conference.

There are several subjects that we've been discussing those days that
require a face to face meeting.

So, We'll be doing a media mini-summit on May, 2 (Friday) at Marriott San
Jose. Eventually, we may also schedule some BoFs during the week, if needed.

In order to properly organize the event, I need the name of the
developers interested on joining us, plus the themes proposed for
discussions.

As usual, we'll be using the media-workshop@linuxtv.org ML for specific
discussions about that, so the ones interested on participate are
requested to subscribe it.

Thanks!
Mauro

Please count me in.

Possible topics:

- Integration of the of-graph helpers and the component framework 
(drivers/base/component.c) in V4L2

- Format and selection rectangles interaction (Hans is working on adding test 
cases for this to the compliance tools and ht reported that several points 
were not clear)

I'm in.

Topics:

- V4L2 API ambiguities, based on the recent work I've been doing with vivi and
  v4l2-compliance. This will include any ambiguities relating to cropping,
  composing and scaling.

- I might have to discuss topics relating to the addition of compound types to
  the control framework.

- Per-frame settings aka configuration stores. This feature is necessary for
  Android's libcamera 3.

- Optional: a short demo of the various test drivers and test tools I'm
  developing.

Regards,

	Hans

Devin and myself will be in San Jose all week, although we do have
existing plans for May 2nd.

If we can fit the mini-summit in then we will, or we'll catch up with
individual people during the conference itself.

Best,

- Steve

And another one:

- Patch review process: several developers were unhappy with patch series 
posted a month before being rejected right before the mainline merge window. 
Should our process be improved in that area ?

Sorry for joining so late. Me and Tomasz Figa will be attending the ELC and
we would like to join the media mini summit.

There were many interesting topics suggested. I would like to discuss in
particular the "Per-frame settings aka configuration stores" suggested by
Hans.
 
Tomasz is working with the device tree so he could help us
with "Integration of the of-graph helpers and the component framework
(drivers/base/component.c) in V4L2", suggested by Laurent.

Best wishes,
