DeveloperSummit
Ubuntu Developer Summits are twice-annual events where developers from Ubuntu and other projects gather to plan the next Ubuntu release. They usually last one week, and are open to the public, but attendees are expected to participate in highly technical discussions and writing sessions.
Small groups of developers participate in short (45-60 minute) BOF sessions where a single project is discussed, and then document the outcome of the discussion in the form of a written specification. These specifications are used as the basis for planning the subsequent work of developing a new release of Ubuntu, as described in FeatureSpecifications and TimeBasedReleases.
The schedule is dynamically generated for each day, based on the progress made the previous day.
