I co-maintain arm-soc together with Arnd Bergmann (and Kevin Hilman), often merging code that spans between our tree and various other subsystem. Meeting other maintainers at Kernel Summit is usually highly beneficial since it makes the whole process run smoother. Topics I care about: * Embedded/mobile platforms: We merge embedded as well as server platform code, and interact with a lot of the various camps, including the people stuck between the nasty downstream vendor trees and upstream. * Stable tree discussions. Having the discussion at last KS about timing of releases was hugely beneficial, picking 4.4 as a solid base for the year's devices. * Maintainership, process discussions. arm-soc is one of the fairly smooth-running maintainer groups but always looking to improve (and share our experiences) * Testing and making it easier for people to get tests in with their code, even if we don't mandate it. * Devicetree and platform description discussions always seem to be going on, even when we think we've sorted out most existing issues. I care a good amount about these as well. -Olof
