BoFs

Development 2.0

(proposed by Jstaniek (talk) 10:37, 18 June 2014 (BST)) ​​ Is it still possible to fund development from contributors' "pockets" (time contributions mostly) AND grow? We need to agree on possible options to engage users and attract investors.

Calligra is currently a project of two speeds. Some apps achieved ZERO mph. Recently mostly Kexi and Krita push it all forward.

• Growing user base
• Challenges in deployment: insufficient (quality) control, fragmentation on Linux; ideas to address that
• Importance of non-Linux targets: Windows, Mac, Web (cloud?) for the development model (paying customers)
• Review of goals, message, communication channels
• Possible need for loosening connections between Calligra apps (organizational, technical) brings more reality, but it's not loosening connections in the community!

Projects

Projects we'll work on in small groups, mostly coding or creating other concrete results.
