We have also planned a bunch of sessions to discuss important topics, let me give some examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Release Schedule &#8212; Our current schedule was based on the needs of a freshly released &#8220;dot oh&#8221; version (Plasma 5.0), Plasma 5 is now way more mature. Do we want to adjust our release schedule of 4 major versions a year to that?<\/li>\n<li>Convergence &#8212; How can we improve integration of\u00a0touch-friendly UIs in our workflows?<\/li>\n<li>What are our biggest quality problems right now, and what are we going to do about it?<\/li>\n<li>How do we make Plasma Mobile available on more devices, what are our next milestones?<\/li>\n<li>How can we improve the Plasma session start?<\/li>\n<li>What&#8217;s left to make Plasma on Wayland ready for prime-time?<\/li>\n<li>How can we improve performance further?<\/li>\n<li>etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You see, we&#8217;re going to be really busy here. You won&#8217;t see results of this next week, but this kind of meeting is important to flesh out our development for the next months and years.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2492\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2492\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vizZzion.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1401.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2492\" src=\"https:\/\/vizZzion.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1401-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"All good\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vizZzion.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1401-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/vizZzion.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1401-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/vizZzion.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/IMG_1401.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2492\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">All good? &#8211; All good!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QtCon 2016\u00a0is a special event: it co-hosts KDE&#8217;s Akademy, the Qt Contributor summit, the FSFE summit, the VideoLan dev days\u00a0and KDAB&#8217;s training day\u00a0into one big conference.
