Interesting conferences / Dev Rooms at the fosdem 2008
Hi,
This article is a kind of feedback of some of the interesting things I saw at the Fosdem last Saturday (I learned too late that I was able to go to it on Sunsday too, but…). It’s probably very partial, subjective and is not intended at all to put a mark to various events.
I particularly liked the various Mozilla Dev Rooms, probably because they showed there is still a lot of things to improve in great products. I mainly listened to the Dev Rooms about Mozilla Labs (and Mozilla Weave in particular) and about the Mozilla Calendar Project. I was surprised to heard that a lack of developpers may really slow down such projects. Maybe I’ll have a look at it if I have enough time ;)
Another quite pleasant Dev Room was about elisa, a program intended to be nice and easy to use to play various multimedia files (a kind of media center). There’s still too a lot of things to do about this project and I’d like to see what this project will become in a few months…
That was a very very short summary about some things at the Fosdem, but to sum up all in a sentence: Fosdem 2008 was great!
