The second day of DevConf begun with Aaron
Seigo and Waldo Bastian teaching us mere geeks how to properly promote our applications.
Although it beared some elements of the motivation talk by some well-known big software vendor
company, known from movies on the internet (“developers, developers, developers, developers,
developers …”) it was quite funny. Nothing really new, nothing earth shuddering.
Short thereafter, I gained a lot of insight in KDE’s bindings through Richard
Dale‘s talk about them, he elaborated on misconceptions, techniques to generate them, what’s
possible, what’s even much more easy using bindings rather than C++ (DCOP anyone?). Interesting, at
the very least.
I spent the afternoon, writing a basic PyQt Tutorial which took most of my attention, with a
short interruption to have a look at the KDE4 iconset “Oxygen” which is developed by Kenneth
Wimer, Nuno Pinheiro and David Vignoni our divine artists. (I’ll not show photo’s of it, though.
You’ll have to wait. :P)
