FOSDEM meeting?

[Petr Menšík]

Yes, my talk will be in DNS devroom. I plan to visit distribution room 
in any case, but Snaps are not my favorites. It is already accepted [1], 
Saturday 17:30 at room K4.201.

Would be about our intention to create systemd-resolved replacement, 
which would add features without hopefully adding regressions on well 
behaved networks. It should use battle-proven DNS resolvers instead of 
writing yet another from scratch, just adding required glue between 
Network Manager and resolver daemons. It should also present DNS 
information in a nice way, kind of resolvectl. Ideally localized.

We have still just barely working prototype now, it should be improved 
before our presentation.

I will arrive on Friday morning and leave at Sunday evening.

I thought about having a short talk about Avahi too, but except there 
are new people involved and it moved main repository, there is not much 
to talk about (yet). Of course, I have many ideas how to improve Avahi 
and MDNS on Linux, but that should be about existing things, not dreams. 
But at least short chat about what where we are now over beer, or just 
chips and limonade, would be nice.
