I've linked to your micrconference from the automotive microconference:
http://wiki.linuxplumbersconf.org/2013:automotive

I'm a bit confused about the LPC format though. John, is it planned to have
the non-Android fastboot discussion as part of the automotive
microconference or is this separate (despite its automotive relevance.) I
ask because it might be nice to have the participants in both
microconferences and it would be a shame to lose attendees to one or the
other if they're competing tracks.

Can someone clue me in to the microconference format as regards LPC?

Thanks,

Jeremiah
