Report from the KDE World Summit

Report from the KDE World Summit 08/23/2004 08:26 AM
LUDWIGSBURG, GERMANY -- During the opening day of KDE's World Summit -- aKademy -- the idea that there's no such thing as a free lunch was easily dismissed thanks to meal tickets from IBM and a local cafe, though sadly those who convened to discuss and celebrate free software weren't rewarded with free beer. With approximately half a thousand people currently registered, months of preparation have turned into a day of frantic setting up and a lively meeting of the KDE Project's governing board, the KDE e.V.

Report from the KDE World Summit: Day
six 08/27/2004 01:36 PM
Wednesday at aKademy provided KDE hackers with their first day without a special focus. The KDE PIM (Personal Information Management) developers had a discussion session, I led a Quality Team session on media and promotion work, and the usability playing ground continued; otherwise, developers roamed around chatting, hacking, partying and sleeping (a little). And if that didn't satisfy the KDE developer, he could always take some time out for one of three consecutive dinners or celebrate his exam results.

Day three of aKademy opened with presentations in two tracks, covering the themes of multimedia on the desktop and integration. A cruel starting time of 8.45 meant that the first talks suffered from a rather low attendance, perhaps due to the exploits of certain KDE hackers. But those who managed to crawl out of bed so early were not disappointed.

Day eight of aKademy marked the end of the coding marathon. As though restless with their desktop, KDE hackers turned their attention to a tutorial in live cracking, an impromptu demonstration of command line tools, and a brief rootkit panic. Despite the shift in focus, I found some time to talk to some members of the documentation team about their plans.

Writing about aKademy can begin to feel a little like writing a soap opera guide without the romance (so far). To save your patience, this report from the first two days of the coding marathon will focus largely on the scheduled content, and in particular on developments in accessibility, usability and local KDE groups. The coding marathon lasts for five days, in between the developer conference and the user conference, and allows the project's hackers to work solidly for just under a week under the same roof, and spend time discussing and working on practical issues. Alongside the marathon, a series of tutorials are being run by some of the top hackers and professionals in their fields.

The World Summit on the Information Society is meeting in Geneva this week , to discuss questions of planetary internet policy and governance.

One aspect of discussion concerns the role of the United States as internet's creator and most influential player , which some nations contest politically and ideologically . One proposal might be to raise the International Telecommunications Union ( ITU ) as a global regulatory agency.

An additional topic is likely to be support for open access scholarship .

The British Council has launched a weblog for following the Summit 's discussions and events .

Users and Admins 09/03/2004 08:15 AM
Day nine of aKademy saw the start of the Users and Administrator's Conference, and the celebration of the international Software Freedom Day. With the end of the developers' section of the summit, the hacking rooms began to thin out, but the loss in numbers was accommodated by (for the most part local) crowds of users filing in to hear from developers and other users and administrators. And for those following the SUSE-Novell developments, a keynote from a Novell employee was not to be missed.

The tenth and final day of the KDE World Summit 2004 - aKademy - presented visitors with a second opportunity to learn more about some of KDE's key technologies, and to hear of how KDE has been successfully deployed by others. A track on groupware and collaboration tools gave developers the chance to show off their work, whilst a track on success stories turned the tables, allowing visitors and developers alike to hear of KDE being used in deployments ranging from 10,000 desktops to the famous Live CD Knoppix.

meeting prepared 12/10/2003 02:20 AM

The World Summit on the Information Society ( WSIS ) meeting prepared to begin today, with a variety of issues beginning to emerge. Draft declarations of principles and action have been published .

Some friction occured over the United States' leading role in internet governance, with a US representative ejected , and some nations calling for a United Nations agency to take a leading role. The United Nation's secretary, Kofi Annan, called for the summit to preserve media freedoms.

The WSIS is being covered by the DailySummit weblog and the WSIS Newsfeed . The very popular HelloWorld! project is beaming Web-based and SMS-sent messages to global locations, including Geneva, by laser, as an artistic commentary on the event.

Day seven of aKademy here in Ludwigsburg (Stuttgart region), Germany, saw KDE developers finally tackle the tricky question of release schedules and whether they should skip straight to KDE 4 or have an interim release of KDE 3.4. Plans for SVGs in KDE theming were discussed, with some welcome news for those who have been waiting for graphical goodies. And as the name of this section -- coding marathon -- of the summit implies, keyboards remained busy all day.
