I’ll give a talk at Akademy together with Alessandro Diaferia, so the topc can be easily guessable 🙂

We’ll talk about the adaption of Plasma to completely different use cases to its usual dress, that is to be the main user interface of a desktop system.

In particular i’ll talk more about the Netbook Shell and Alessandro will talk about the media center project.

I’ll leave Alessandro going in more details on the mediacenter, I’ll try instead to answer to some question, some generic, about porting plasma on different devices some specific to the Netbook use case:

• Why netbooks need something different?
• Why KDE SC is a good platform on non desktop devices?
• What Plasma has to offer there?
• What has to offer to users?
• What about toys for developers?
• What are the components of the Netbook shell and why they are designed the way they are?

It will be on Saturday 3 July, 17:45, at the mobile track, stay tuned 😀
