Developer call: Mozilla/Maemo Danish Weekend

After some emails exchanged with the Mozilla folks we agreed on an unprecedented co-organization of a Mozilla/Maemo Danish Weekend. It’s conceived to be a hands on developer event held in the IT University of Copenhagen on May 30-31 (preceded by a welcoming evening party on Friday 29).

Both teams are pushing their alphas to a beta stage as we speak, so it made sense to have a collocated hackfest.If you are working on Maemo 5 applications or Fennec add-ons this call is for you.

Right now there are 13 participants registered from 11 countries – a promising kick off! There is a modest travel sponsorship budget for developers short on cash but abundant in skills.

More information in the joint announcement and the wiki page. See you in Copenhagen!

If you could read the subject ;) then maybe you are target for this:

http://fruct.org/index.php?morus_itemid=65

Yesterday we met in Helsinki the organizers of the next FRUCT seminar and they told us they would welcome Maemo developers willing to showcase their work and tell about their experiences in the Maemo community. If you are good and not too far away they might even have some budget to sponsor your trip. If you are interested introduce yourself to Timofey (dot) Turenko at Nokia (dot) com.

FRUCT stands for Finnish-Russian University Cooperation Program in Telecommunications and they develop several Maemo research projects.

See also the discussion thread in Internet Tablet Talk (soon to become talk.maemo.org).

An interesting coincidence in time: Forum Nokia is Calling All Innovators while Maemo looks for community projects for the prime time. If you are cooking something so great that people would like to carry always with them, this call is for you. As for Maemo, we want to support community initiatives trying to develop impressive products. [...]

Corporate budget planning is an interesting science that leads you to look at the future in a quite pragmatic way. First half of 2009: where is Maemo going to be? Where is the Maemo community willing to go and meet? The first Maemo Summit ever was a success! I was supposed to blog about that, but [...]
