Dates for Virtual Linux Plumbers now 20-24 September
2021-05-04 – 14:37
We took a look at all the events that were announced at the same time as OSS, including KVM Forum. The dates 20-24 September still seem to be clear of conference overlaps so we thought we’d grab them for Plumbers before someone else does. We also thought the timezone last year (Atlantic, 1h ahead of […]

Welcome to the 2021 Linux Plumbers Conference
2021-01-08 – 22:58
Planning for the 2021 Linux Plumbers Conference is well underway. The hope is to be in Dublin co-located with OSS EU (although with hopefully non-overlapping dates). However, the Linux Foundation is still negotiating for a suitable venue so we can’t fully confirm the location yet. There is an outside (and hopefully receding) chance that we […]
