See you at Desktop Summit 2011

Although my talk “The Web jumps into D-Bus” was not accepted for this year edition of the Desktop Summit, I’m still attending the event thank to my employer Igalia which apart from sponsoring the conference, is sponsoring my attendance together with a bunch of other igalians as well. Like two years ago, this edition is special because we have the GUADEC and Akademy events co-located under the free Desktop Summit umbrella. This is a great opportunity for communication, coordination, sharing and synergy among the different free desktop environments, their projects, hackers and communities.

As usual, I will be hanging around closer to where GNOME folks gather, but this year that could not always be true since I have a special interest on Freedesktop.org and Web technologies, and that means I might be seen anywhere around ;) . Apart from that, of course I will be hopping on the security and introspection-related sessions as usual; and I also want to get closer to the GNU community that usually gathers during these days. I hope there will be interesting discussions around the Freedombox project.

So, if you are in Berlin next week and want to chat about EventDance, the free desktop, free software, technology or life in general, find me there and be welcomed.
