Forwarding since this email in maemo-community is more relevant to
developers.

If you have more questions about the Maemo - Barcelona Long Weekend
please ask. http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo-Barcelona_Long_Weekend

ok, this is a good idea too.

this was a "dart" directed to Thomas :)
I hope we can find some minutes to sit down, drink a beer and talk
about how to organize the UI of my app :P

p.s: the teacher I'm organizind the Maemo presentation with, should
come too. He's registered (Antonio Cano).
Today I was able to take contacts even with Polinux the Linux User
Group of Politecnica de Valencia, there are some students interested
in learning something more about Maemo. That's so cool :)

Of course, will try my best to help with technical questions about
PyMaemo/Hildon/GTK+ there :)

Maybe we should have a "map" of people and technologies on the Wiki
so that when one needs (technical) help with a specific technology, he/she
can look up the name of persons that have worked with that technology
before? Ideally, everyone can then add technologies they are working with
(Qt, GStreamer, GTK+, Hildon, Python, ...), so everyone can make the
best use of the time at the event..

Would such a wiki page make sense? Would attending developers be
interested in adding their fields of work/interest to such a page?

Thanks,
Thomas

I have added the section "Help with specific technologies" to
http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo-Barcelona_Long_Weekend/UX_meets_Code

Please add yourself, too :)

Thanks,
Thomas

Don't forget that in the neighbor room there will be a developer
training track. Feel free jumping there to ask questions or bringing
experts to "your" room.

The whole schedule is flexible - and yours by the way.
