GCDS Day 2 – GUADEC starts

During the morning I attended the following talks of the Cross-desktop track:

I liked the Desktop search and Tracker talks, that allowed me to understand better the problems and ideas of these projects. From the D-Bus talk I should extract a basic concept:

D-Bus API shouldn’t be just a mapping of your library

You should use some time to think the proper D-Bus methods that you need. Another interesting thing was Bustle, a kind of D-Bus monitor that seems very interesting.

At the afternoon the GUADEC starts, and I’ve attended:

It was interesting see the current status of GNOME Shell. The GNOME Zeitgeist talk reminded me some ideas of MyTime. Finally, I had the chance to talk a bit with Rob Bradford about Mojito project, a very interesting way to access social networks from the desktop.

BTW, Nokia’s party is waiting, see you there tonight ;-)
