Talk Submissions

How to speed up your Maemo application development

  • Author: Raul Herbster, raul.herbster at signove dot com
  • Intended audience: Application/Platform Developers
  • Talk type: presentation
  • Abstract/description
Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) positively impacts on the development process of maemo applications, increasing productivity, improving standardization and reducing coding error. In addition, IDEs definitely help maemo newbies getting started a lot quicker on technologies by providing templates and useful tools under a consistent and integrated graphical interface. IDE Integration project consists of IDEs (ESbox and PluThon), development environments for different languages (Python and C/C++) and PC-Connectivity, a tool to simplify setting up of communication between the Internet Tablet and the host PC. This presentation shows how IDE Integration can be used to help you to develop Maemo applications (C/C++ and Python).
  • Author bio
Raul Herbster has got his BSc. and Master degrees in Computer Science at Federal University of Campina Grande, Brazil. He is a key developer and maintainer of the ESbox and PluThon, which are part of the official maemo IDE Integration environment. He is a Nokia Certified Trainer and Forum Nokia Champion since 2008. Currently, Raul is a senior developer of Signove and works on IDE Integration project.

Life outdoor event with Maemo

  • Author: Till Harbaum
  • Intended audience: everyone
  • Talk type: lightning talk + outdoor thing
  • Abstract/description
Location based services are en vogue. GPXView and OSM2Go are two examples for this and a live outdoor demo can sure be real fun. While OSM2Go has a more serious background something like guided real life mapping (there are sure things close to the event that need mapping/correction) may be cool. GPXView is a fun thing and e.g. a special summit related geocache could be hidden. This needs some planning but would likely even attract some geocachers from that region. Also this could be used for some fancy promo things. There could be prizes t win (to be found in a cache) or Maemo related travel bugs could be started. Even a Maemo "geocoin" could be made for this event.
  • Author bio
Till Harbaum is a spare time maemo developer and has been working with maemo since he sold his last palm device. His projects include maemo related hardware hacks, games, the aforementioned GPXView and OSM2Go.

Writing plugins for MAFW

  • Author: Iago Toral - itoral at igalia dot com

GUPnP and Rygel: The UPnP/DLNA solution for Maemo

  • Author: Zeeshan Ali, Lead-Developer at Maemo Devices, Nokia.
  • Intended audience: everyone
  • Talk type: presentation
  • Abstract/description
I will be introducing the work we have been putting up for the past two and half years to provide a complete well-documented solution for UPnP needs of Maemo and GNOME (Mobile) in general. Also included in the talk will be some cool demos of both of these projects in action.

Automatic binding generation for Qt based libraries

  • Marcelo Lira dos Santos - marcelo.lira@openbossa.org - setanta on #maemo
  • Intended audience: application developers/platform developers
  • Talk type: presentation
  • Abstract/description:
The mantra "Qt Everywhere" certainly refers not only to platforms but also to languages which have bindings to Qt4 libraries. Qt4 being a huge library, the task of creating bindings for a given language must be as much automated as possible, while retaining the developer the ability to adjust the details to satisfy the particular target language demands.
Creators of bindings for other Qt-based libraries, such as the KDE libraries, could also benefit of an automated generation scheme. Having this in mind, the generator should be easy to use and extend.
This talk will present the binding generator based on QtScript Generator from Qt Development Frameworks. The generator's architecture and its use, with particular focus on the Python and Qt4 case, how it can be changed to generate binding source code for other languages, and problems that could arise in such tasks. PySide [1], the Qt4 Python bindings created with the generator tool, will also be shown.
  • Author bio
Marcelo is an active developer of PySide and PyMaemo projects at INdT and has been involved with Maemo apps development since N800. Nowadays he is working with automatic binding generation for C++ based libraries, like Qt4.

  • Author: Andrea Grandi (andy80), a.grandi at gmail dot com
  • Intended audience: Application/Platform Developers
  • Talk type: light talk
  • Abstract/description
I'll do a short introduction of this (still in development stage) python binding for MAFW, letting people know that this library exist, upgrading people about the stage of the development, showing a very short example of code and asking feedback from python applications developers to be able to understand on which tasks we should concentrate and how to improve this library.

Midgard2: Content repository for your tablet and the web

  • Author: Henri Bergius, henri.bergius at iki dot fi
  • Intended audience: Application Developers
  • Talk type: presentation
  • Abstract/description
Midgard2 is an Open Source Content Repository providing an objectified view to the data and services surrounding it. At the basic level it abstracts the database access (SQLite, MySql, PostgreSQL) but this is only where it all starts. Serialization & replication, managing own storage objects, multi-process access to data are all covered. The fully object-oriented (GObject-oriented) API allows you to focus on the data, not the database syntax, regardless of what programming language you are working with. Midgard's content repository services allow you to easily write applications that keep their data synchronized between tablets, web and user's desktop computers.

Improving the Bluetooth experience on Linux

  • Gustavo F. Padovan. < gustavo at padovan dot org >
  • Intended audience: platform developers
  • Talk type: presentation
  • Abstract/description
This talk will cover the implementation of the Enhanced Retransmission Mode(ERTM) of operation of the Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol (L2CAP), a Bluetooth Core layer. ERTM provides support for segmentation and reassembly of packets, flow control and error control which means, mainly, support for retransmission of lost packets on Bluetooth Core implementation on Linux for the first time.
ERTM makes transfers more reliable, giving us a very low error rate. Also, It is one of the first steps to implement the amazing Alternate MAC/PHY(new Bluetooth 3.0 feature), which allows that Bluetooth uses the 802.11 radio to transport Bluetooth data. I'm doing this work as part of my Google Summer of Code project and I'm being mentored by Marcel Holtmann, the BlueZ maintainer.

Expanding the tablet user base

  • Luc Byhet
  • Intended audience: everyone
  • Talk type: presentation / lessons learned
  • Abstract/description
Mobile platforms such as laptops and smartphones got pervasive but unappropriate to specific tasks and jobs. Well, not so specific as it's sometimes hundred of thousands of users. End users started envisioning specialised devices for their own specific fields and tasks. Tablets are a good fit for technical fieldforces, healthcare, trading, law enforcement or interactive guides but yet their use in these areas is not so widespread yet.
This talk will be about influencing users and decision makers, stimulating innovation around tablets, meeting users and ensuring that devices get used. A walkthrough of succesful implementations of similar devices will be presented as well as a checklist of what to do to make this happen. This is about tech and business, code and industrial design, and potentially finding a dream job.
  • Author bio
I'm working for Accenture Technology Consulting, my job is to evangelize CIOs and decision-makers about open source software, get decisions done and launch projects. I'm a permanent observer of Open Source communities and promoter of their work. I'm currently working on innovative use cases for tablets.

Building a Safe Mobile Browsing Experience

  • timeless
  • Application developers
  • Presentation
  • Abstract/description
Making a browser is simple, right? All you need is a text field and a content area. Then someone asks for back, and forward, and bookmarks, and zooming. Eventually someone says they care about whether they're visiting their bank's web page or some con-artist. At this point, you realize that things aren't simple. But that's just the normal process, we're trying to build a browser for a mobile device with a small screen. Then along comes a user interface designer who tries to "simplify things", you don't need to "waste" space on that lock icon, right? Someone asks "why aren't you protecting me from phishing?" Then someone says "you just cost me 200 CAD in data charges". Balancing requests for features, space for user interface, and practical concerns is hard. Come listen to stories about some of the requests, decisions, and constraints.
  • Additional Information (optional)
Presentation day must be Friday or Sunday.

An Alternative to Autobuilder/Scratchbox

  • David Greaves
  • Intended audience: application & platform developers
  • Talk type : Presentation/demo
  • Abstract
Since Fremantle Extras applications will eventually be submitted to the Mer builder it may be a good idea to introduce it. We use the openSuse Open Build Service; a GPL service that provides an emulated, pristine (yes, I'm looking at you autobuilder and scratchbox), dependency driven build environment. I'll talk about the processes around Mer builds, access controls, managing integration with our DVCS (git), acceleration tricks and generally how to make good use of things you find lying about on the web.
  • Additional Information
Live web link to OBS would be good.
  • Author bio
David is the Mer build mentor; he's been a solutions architect at a major telco for several years but still (kinda) knows how to code. He's a passionate believer in the commercial viability of OSS. Previous contributions include kick-starting the git documentation & establishing wikis for Linux RAID and MythTV. He runs linux everywhere.

DVCS? git? - How does that work then?

  • David Greaves
  • Intended audience: application developers
  • Talk type : Presentation/demo
  • Abstract
A few years ago the world changed when DVCS systems arrived. You probably didn't notice. After all they are extraordinarily complex and unsuitable for mere mortals... aren't they?
No, they're not. I'll explain a little about git and how we use it in Mer; I'll cover the basics and then run through some more interesting issues like managing branches & patches, managing merges with upstream (useful if you are hildonising an application) and also some of my favourite tricks and tips.
There will, of course, be loads of fancy graphical effects for the eye-candy junkies.
  • Additional Information
Live web link to Gitorious would be good.

Mer from a user's perspective

  • Author: Tomasz Dominikowski (dominikowski at gmail dot com)
  • Intended audience: everyone, but aimed at developers in general
  • Talk type: lightning talk
  • Abstract/description
Will cover Mer from a purposefully ordinary user's perspective, who just wants it work and get things done while using it, dishearteningly ignoring the sweat and tears of developers, who worked hard to get to this point.
Will discuss problems that may arise from raised expectations as Mer's UI starts looking very attractive, but the internals are still not up to scratch. More and more people will get attracted, with next to no clue of what Mer really is and an overwhelming sense of entitlement, the "I want my money back" kind.
  • Additional Information
Might need to show some Mer screenshots.
