KDE: 39C3
Quoting: 39C3 —
This year I wanted to attend a few more talks live and in person, which worked somewhat well. I’ll include a list of talks in the end, in case you are looking for some ideas for talks to watch on media.ccc.de.
Just like last year, I spend a large amount of time at the KDE assembly. Once again, we were part of the Bits & Bäume Habitat. My initial worries about our new location being being in a fairly dark hall instead of the bright and very visible area near the central stairs turned out to be unjustified. We received tons of great feedback and had many nice and motivating conversations with other developers and users.
Victoria started a Konqi hotline service on the Congress phone network, which was in high demand.
The most important activity for me at Congress was meeting some Transitous contributors I had not yet talked to in person. It was great to meet you all.
There were also multiple opportunities to connect with GNOME developers and designers. We identified some low-level components that we might be able to share. We exchanged our ideas for making contributing as easy as possible for new contributors, a topic which GNOME is doing fairly well at as far as I can tell.
