General Information

Randa Sprint in sprints.kde.org

Agenda

KDE Edu and Teachers Notes
- Presentation on "Cooperative Learning"
- Brainstorming for new educational applications based on "Cooperative Learning"
- How can we introduce teachers in the development process?
  - How to get teaching material for our applications/that make use of our applications?

New KDE Edu programs Notes
- Couple of participants mentioned that during the face to face introduction they have new ideas. Let us have a discussion about those!
  - Mula mockups: https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/edu/mula/repository/revisions/master/show/frontends/mockup

KDE Edu on Windows Notes
- How to attract contributors to fix runtime or build issues on Windows?
- Cross compilation on Linux if no license available? Document how to do it?
- Can we distribute on their market?
- What will happen with Metro+KDE?

KDE Edu on Mobile Notes
- What projects should be ported?
- Do we want different versions for the Mobile version?
- Should they be available for free on the platform markets?
- Localization issues?
- How to advertise KDE Edu better in mobile softwares?
- How to improve app-in purchase like a new translation? Porting GHNS or something else?
- How to get devices or simulators up and running easily?
- Common feedback from the appstore reviews?
- Adding screenshots and few words on the website?
- How can we lower the barrier to get into mobile tasks?
- Evaluation: what metrics make a platform more potential than another for KDE Edu?
- How to make the build simple for various platforms (i.e. helping developer, packagers, and so forth)?
- Mobile edu logo (less detailed? Getting svgs so that is easier to handle forth and back?)

Website Notes
- State?
- What's missing?
- How can we improve it?

Plasma Active Notes
- How can we make sure we are a first citizen on the project?
- How can we take advantage from it?

Quality Notes
- Code testing coverage?
- Testing? More collaboration with the Quality team and teachers to test new releases?
- Documentation of the project, even software architectures?
- How to get the best code out from not primarily programmers, but scientists?
- Continous Integration and Jenkins, something missing?

Artwork, UI Design, and Usability Notes
- Do we have something we can do better for attracting such contributors?
- How can we do this better ourselves when we have a lack of expertise around? What guidelines should we consider?
- Any lessons learned from previous mobile efforts or from desktop?

Qt5 and KDE Frameworks Notes
- Worth starting?
- Are there contributors for porting and experimenting?
