Hi all,
The good news is that largely everything is as I announced previously. The tracks have been cleaned up a bit, so the memory management mini-summit is now driven out of the Linaro Graphics track, but the room (Ond) and schedule (M-W afternoons) is still the same. All the info you need on the schedule is here:
http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-o/
The room is supposed to have a projector, be mic'd for live audio and have an IRC channel. Those participating remotely will be interested in the details around the audio and IRC access here:

A link for the mini-summit event found here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Events
goes to the (work in progress) agenda and there is a registration link as well. Please let me know if I've missed any components that need representation, if there are some on there that you feel don't need it, or if there are additional items you'd like to see on the agenda.
The Media Controller doesn't belong in this discussion. It has nothing to do with buffer handling. The same is true AFAICT for KMS. It is no doubt useful to have a discussion about V4L/KMS/MC, but that's a separate topic.
I think separate but a bit related topic, so it would be good to cover.. ie. if the conclusion is that something new is needed to replace GEM (rather than enhancements to GEM), we should see how this fits in to DRM. (Although the main connection I could see at the moment, I think you'd need to be able to represent an allocated buffer as a __u32 handle so you have an association between a drm_framebuffer object and the actual buffer memory.)
if less people are interested (or at least less that are joining remotely) we could perhaps cover these in one of the morning timeslots

I have 2 requests of the people that will participate in person:
- Please "register" to indicate you'll be there in person (or even if
you plan on participating remotely). There are a few reasons for this, but the critical one is to make sure we have a big enough room. 2) Sign-up to represent a component, at least in the overview sessions. This is important for sane discussion afterwards.
I'll prepare a short V4L presentation, focussing on the buffer handling API and buffer handling internals.
Regards,
Hans
If you don't or can't get write access to the Linaro wiki, just send me email directly and I'll do it by proxy. Also, if you have material that you will "show" people (slides, etc.), please send it to the list ahead of time for the benefit of those participating remotely. Finally, the "project page" for this effort is here on the Linaro wiki:
https://wiki.linaro.org/OfficeofCTO/MemoryManagement
Thanks again to everyone for their contributions.
cheers, Jesse
