KDE's Akademy 2012 Developer Notes

Posted by Michael Larabel on July 10, 2012

KDE's annual event, Akademy, ended last week in Tallinn, Estonia. Here's some notes from the developer-focused event.

Akademy 2012 was in Estonia from 30 June through the 6th of July. I wasn't there due to the Debian event in Nicaragua, but there's notes from many developers, slides from the BoF sessions, and other information to be found online. Below are some of the resources for those interested in learning more about this year's KDE development event.

The KDE community Wiki has some information about the different BoF sessions, etc. From there I was able to find some of the slides for different topics and other information from the week-long event.

From the Planet KDE are many KDE developers who blogged about their experiences:

- Akademy Impressions by Martin Gräßlin

- Akademy-triggered random thoughts about the future

- Akademy and awards and stuff!

- Home again
