This year, the meeting will take place from July 5th to July 9th in Dijon, to the East of France. The Libre Software Meeting aims at allowing designers and developers of free software projects [1] from different places to meed and and share their ideas and experiences. LSM is also an opportunity to discuss societal issues. Technical conferences cover a wide range of topics, from high-level programming languages to databases, through security concerns. The "operating system design and development" topic is looking for speakers to present free software projects. Technical topics include (but are not limited to): * design and implementation of operating systems: architecture, services, libraries, use of high-level languages and advanced programming techniques such as AOP, dynamic reconfiguration, etc.; * kernel subsystems: schedulers, I/O schedulers, virtual memory management, etc.; * filesystem implementation: journalized, distributed filesystems, etc.; * realtime extensions to free operating systems; * virtualization tools (i.e. Xen, User-Mode-Linux, etc.); * kernel development tools : debuggers, performance evaluation, etc.; * distributed operating systems; * embedded systems development. Programs of previous years are available online [2]. The program for 2005 is being defined and a tentative program is available online [3]. There is no programme committee (it is not a scientific conference) and selection process is expected to remain as lightweight as possible. Volunteers should contact Thomas Petazzoni and Ludovic Court=E8s by June 2005. Speakers are encouraged to write a small paper (6 to 12 A4 sheets) summarizing their presentation (in an open format such as PostScript or PDF). Ludovic Court=E8s and Thomas Petazzoni.
