Dear Adrián,
We sent you an email earlier on turning your talk into a tutorial. Please respond as soon as possible.
- Netdev 0x19 Submissions
Hi,
I have discussed with my colleagues the possibility of turning it into a Tutorial and it seems doable but we have some questions:
As it's our first NetDev Conf (as speakers), we'd like to understand what are the expectations regarding a tutorial. I understand it's longer (>1h), and can be more practical but, do we need to set an environment where attendees can participate?
Can it still address limitations and give feedback to the community? For example: we had this comment from one of the reviewers:
What the features are doesn't matter nearly as much as how it's done and what your experiences from doing it are. A demo is good, but be prepared to show the "dirty details" of how you're setting up your eBPF code and carrying information out of the kernel, especially the more kernel-stateful things like conntrack. If you have feedback to kernel people, this would also be the place to bring it.
Does this also apply to tutorials?
Another key aspect is remote access. It might be possible for one of us to travel, probably not the full week but at least the day of the tutorial. But the other two speakers would be remote. Is it possible?
Also, when will we know the exact date & time of the tutorial so we can book the flights/hotel (as I said, we most likely would stay just for one day)? Finally, is there any funding available? That would help my employer to also find some budget for this.
Thanks. Adrián
