The panel will present the program and this year's Linux kernel projects. Gargi Sharma will present her work on
replacing the PID bitmap implementation with an IDR API-based implementation. Sayli Karnik will talk about her improvements to the Linux kernel documentation​. Eva Rachel Retuya will present her work on developing the ADXL345 IIO driver to replace the existing input driver. Narcisa Vasile will present her work on writing a driver for CCS811 Air Quality
Sensor using the IIO interface. Varsha Rao will discuss her work on improving nftables. Bhumika Goyal will talk about securing the Linux kernel by declaring kernel structures read-only.
