This aKademy rocked just as the others that I went. Huge thanks to the organization team, KDE e.V and sponsors for providing ways to make this happen and to have a lot of KDE hackers there!<\/p>\n<p>Instead of doing a technical blog today, I will just say that during this aKademy KDE &#8216;called home&#8217; for the first time. This means that for the first time in history \ud83d\ude42 we had KDE running on a mobile phone and we made a call with it! This was <strong>AWESOME<\/strong>! Just a summary: Plasma-Mobile and a plasmoid that worked as a dialer did the work, using the phone API of Maemo5 on a N900.<\/p>\n<p>As Aaron noticed, our first call was a little bit more &#8220;interesting&#8221; than Graham Bell&#8217;s one. The first words on a telephone in history are:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Mr. Watson, come here. I want to see you.<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Interesting&#8230;..but you may think that the transcription below is a little bit more interesting. I will also omit some context that would explain some of the questions\/answers during this talk as I think that it may turn this more&#8230;let&#8217;s say&#8230;special \ud83d\ude09 Enjoy!<\/p>\n<p>My phone rings (for the sake of curiosity, my ringtone is &#8220;Snow&#8221; by Red Hot Chili Peppers) and the ID of the caller is &#8220;+41&#8221;. I answer and the call drops. I tell Helio that it should be some company from Brazil during TeleMarketing. While we walk to the bus for aKademy&#8217;s day trip it rings again. Alexis Menard is the caller this time:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Me:<\/strong> Bonsoir! er, Bonjour Alexis!<br \/>\n<strong>Alexis:<\/strong> Guess what?!<strong><br \/>\nMe:<\/strong> hhmm, you&#8217;re going to miss the dray trip because you just woke up?<br \/>\n<strong>Alexis:<\/strong> NO! Guess what &#8216;amiguinho&#8217;!? (note: &#8216;amiguinho&#8217; means &#8216;little friend&#8217; in portuguese)<br \/>\n<strong>Me:<\/strong> Oh, I got it! You&#8217;re the guy! Your bed is warmer than it should be?<br \/>\n<strong>Alexis:<\/strong> What?! No, no, no! Come on! GUESS WHAT?!<br \/>\n<strong>Me:<\/strong> I don&#8217;t know then! Let me think&#8230;.ow yeah! GREAT! This phone call was made through the Plasma-Mobile stuff that we did yesterday?!<br \/>\n<strong>Alexis:<\/strong> Yes!! Finally!! I&#8217;m turning off my computer and meet you at the bus!<br \/>\n<strong>Me:<\/strong> OK! See you!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And then I tell everybody that was by my side that it was the first KDE phone call in history! REALLY GREAT! \ud83d\ude42 The conversation above may seem non-sense but all the questions had a reason and the answers too \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<p>Soon we should post some more technical bits about Plasma-Mobile and also I plan to talk a little bit about KDE-Pim-Mobile, the new Sharebin engine (that will support scripted plugins and GHNS) and if you want to contribute to some use cases of Plasma-Mobile take a look at <a href=\"http:\/\/techbase.kde.org\/Projects\/Plasma\/Plasma-Mobile\">this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As a kind of &#8220;sad note&#8221;, I would also like to tell you that the QEdje scriptengine was removed due (my) lack of maintenance of the QEdje project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yep, I didn&#8217;t have time to blog during aKademy as you may have noticed \ud83d\ude42 The main reason is that I had a lot of discussions and attended to a huge number of BoFs.
