Plasma Feedback Round Table

Friday 10:30, area 3

This is a session for us to sit around a room with other interested / concerned KDE folk. We will ask and answer the questions those attending have to the best of our abilities (and record those we don't have answers to for further research), and discuss ideas amongst all of those attending regarding Plasma now and in the future.

The goal is extend the reach of Plasma further across KDE and for KDE contributors to have more input into what we are doing, all in a constructive and open atmosphere. Each attendee should be able to walk away with a better understanding of Plasma, and for the Plasma team to walk away with a better understanding of what KDE wants / expects / hopes / needs from Plasma in the future.

If you would like to attend, add your name (in alphabetical order) to the list below, and note your KDE affiliation if desired. If there is a shortage of room (hopefully not!), those on the list will get preferential admission to the round table.

  • Aaron Seigo (Plasma)
  • Aleix Pol (KDevelop & others)
  • Ivan Cukic (Plasma)
  • Jeremy Whiting (non-plasma I think?)
  • John Layt (plumber)
  • Martin Gräßlin (kwin)
  • Ryan Rix (Plasma/KDEPIM/Somewhere)
  • Shantanu Tushar (Plasma)
  • Chani (plasma)
