A call to all Maemo, Linux and open source lovers:

Maemo-Barcelona Long Weekend
December 4-6 @ http://citilab.eu

Everything started willing to organize a UX meets Code hackfest. Then some local supporters asked about the possibility of having more activities around. Now the schedule is all yours / toda vuestra / tota vostra. See below.

Join the discussion: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=364433

UX meets Code

About 50 invited Maemo community developers and user experience professionals meet 3 days with 3 main goals:

  • Improve the usability and visual appeal of great Maemo apps.
  • Improve the UX documentation for Maemo developers.
  • Get a critical mass of people interested in pushing forward UX meets Code activities online and face to face.

We are lining up the right UX professionals from the Maemo team, Forum Nokia and developer partners.

Interested?

If you want to be invited please provide in this thread:

  • Your maemo.org profile making sure that there one can find info about or links to your current projects and your interests in Code or UX.
  • If you are more into Code, a link to the app hosted in maemo.org, either under Fremantle packages or OS2008 Downloads.
  • If you are more into UX, a link to wherever your work can be seen.

Forward this to your colleagues working on great stuff!

For budgeting and also practical purposes we will keep the number of participants around 50 people even if we get more requests. The criteria will be defined more or less by fast response, travel costs, community involvement and of course Maemo excellence in Code or UX.

But you want more

If you want more, bring more. http://citilab.eu is a great space with rooms of all sizes and an auditorium for 400 people. We are open to suggestions! We have got informal requests about developer training, a N900 presentation, something about localization, an evening together...

We are happy to discuss potential activities with groups like Hispalinux, GNOME Hispano, KDE Hispano, Softcatalà, LUGs, university organizations... Also with you alone if you have a great idea in mind.

Please explain your proposal below linking it to maemo.org profile. Feel free writing in Spanish or Catalan if your activities proposed are targeting local participants.
