+# Kernel <-> Userspace/Init/System Management boundaries and APIs MicroConference @ LPC 24
+
+We are pleased to announce the Call for Participation (CfP) for the [LPC 2024](https://lpc.events/)
+Kernel <-> Userspace/Init/System Management boundaries and APIs MicroConference.
+
+LPC 2024 will be held in Vienna, Austria, September 18th to 20th 2024.
+
+The focus of this microconference will be on topics related to the APIs and interfaces sitting at
+the boundary between the kernel and init systems/system management layers, with a special attention
+directed towards current pain points and omissions.
+
+For example, issues around the current way initrd are loaded and set up between the bootloader and
+the kernel as we move towards immutable systems, or the interfaces provided by the kernel around the
+mount or cgroup or pidfd APIs as consumed by systemd or other service managers, or the uevent
+interactions between the kernel and udev.
+
+## Topics and Format
+
+We expect submissions to be either open discussions or presentations that discuss new proposals/ideas,
+ongoing work, or problems we are/should be solving in this space. Submissions are recommended to be
+20 or 40 minutes long. Please specify the format and the desired length of your submission.
+
+Please allow for at least 5 minutes of questions (10min preferred for the 40min slots).
+
+## Proposals
+
+Proposals should be sent through the LPC scheduling system at: https://lpc.events/event/18/abstracts/
+
+Please select the "Kernel <-> Userspace/Init/System Management boundaries and APIs MC" as the __track__.
+
+__The CfP deadline is Friday, 5 July 2024.__
+
+## Code of Conduct
+
+All of the presentations and discussions in our MC are held under the guidelines set in the
+[LPC Anti-harassment policy](https://lpc.events/event/18/page/238-anti-harassment-policy) and we expect
+attendees, speakers, and volunteers to follow these rules at all times.
