The Linux Kernel Developers Summit is a conference held every year since 2001 by USENIX where Linux kernel developers talk about current and future developments of the Linux kernel. The first summit was held in San Jose in March 2001, which was the only time it has been held in the United States[1]. Subsequent summits have all been held the two days prior to the Ottawa Linux Symposium in Ottawa, Canada at the same conference center. The last Kernel Summit was held on the 4th-6th of September 2007[2] at the DeVere University Arms Hotel in Cambridge, England.

The summit usually hosts around 80 or so attendees. Attendance to the summit is by invitation only.
