Hi,
At FOSDEM 2012 we will have a devroom related to Open Mobile Linux.
Our primary goal is to facilitate meetups, collaboration and awareness
between different projects and communities within Open Mobile Linux
and provide a place to present directions, ideas and your projects
themselves.
By Open Mobile Linux we mean any open source projects revolving around
typical non-desktop/server Linux, such as handsets, tablets, netbooks
or other creative uses. Examples of such projects could be Qt5, Mer,
MeeGo, Android, webOS, Plasma Active, Tizen, Boot to Gecko, SHR and
other related projects.
We have the room AW1.120 with 74 seats, a video projector (VGA),
wireless internet on Saturday 4th February for a total of 8 hours.
The format we will be utilizing is lightning talks of length 15
minutes with 10 minutes of questions, 5 minute changeover to next
speaker. Our goal is about 15 talks during the day.
The motivation is that after each talk, you and your project will be
visible to the rest of the Open Mobile Linux community and further
deeper discussions into your topic with your peers can continue
outside the devroom.
Please send a short biography and an abstract for your talk to
carsten.munk(a)gmail.com by Dec 31st 2011, and we'll get back to you at
latest January 7th.
