2021

KDE is having a Hackday Wednesday 2th June 2021

2020

Canceled
FOSS-North is canceled in 2020 due to COVID19. The conference will be a virtual conference in stead, but the community events will not happen.

KDE is at FOSS-North in 2020 with a community day and a booth (maybe a talk if it gets accepted).

Conference Site Dates: march 29 - april 1, 2020. Place: Chalmers Conference Centre, Gothenburg, Sweden Open Street Map
Call for Participation on -community and -ev-membership

Booth

The booth is a lot like FOSDEM: one table, and we can hand out stickers, demo products, and sell T-shirts.

Adriaan has a laptop with a promo film
Adriaan has a rock64 with Plasma desktop, but no screen

There's a big-ish KDE logo banner. About 200 stickers, some postcards to give away.

TODO

Order T-shirts there, for sales (maybe 30?)
Order beer mats
Borrow a monitor for the rock64

Community Day

We have the opportunity to run a community day in-house somewhere in the city (maybe with FreeBSD).

TOPICS

CMake for beginners (it doesn't have to hurt)
KDE translation (even if Swedish is already at 100%)
The QML scenegraph
FreeBSD as a KDE development environment

2019

KDE is at FOSS-North in 2019 with a community day and a booth (maybe a talk).

Community Day

We have the opportunity to run a community day in-house with a friendly C++-oriented company in Gothenburg. (It's also on the opposite shore of the harbour, which means a neat ferry-ride).

In cooperation with GBG-CPP, meetup-link. Schedule overview.

Topics:

13:00 Part 1: How to become a KDE contributor

How to setup the KDE developer tool chain get involved
How to find features/bugs to work on

Quick Modern CMake for C++
FreeBSD as a KDE development platform
