I was wondering, if there will be space to develop something new during the hackfest, i.e put some ideas into the table and make the concept and the initial prototypes there .

not a bad idea

You mean like.. uhm.. a proper RSS reader ?

I did not want to threadjack which is why I kept it to a minimum.
this is also why I said think the Calendaring sketch wall is a simple logical application principle to start with.
its an easy thing which shows the principles well and can be adapted and changed to multiple purposes.
I will ensure by the time of the meetup that the calendar is completely standalone and available, just need to extract it from the playground itself and put a package round it.

I have been to some barcamps recently and they have a real world paper based grid which the sketching/calendaring ui would work well for.

I've been a bit tied up this last week or so sorting out a dayjob (having some form of stable funding is much more important than anything for the family)

liqbase Calendar slected for the Concepting day!

lcuk, start getting prepared to come to Barcelona. Same as with GPodder and the rest of porjects scheduled, please ask to the contributors of your project to go to the Long Weekend as well. They will get preference in the invitations & sponsorship.

After giving it some more thought I´ve added myself to the wiki list now, although I´m not sure that I can contribute something useful to this event. I have some opinions about UX and translations, but that´s about it.
Please keep that in mind when you´re selecting people. I´m also happy if someone more UX focused is going instead of me

Do I just edit the wiki and put requested, or is there someone else doing that?

I'd like to go and design myself, and maemo apps, to death. And I think we need some more Canadians there!

Feel free to add you name there .

I would personally like to see something proper and new and cool too.

There was a post a while ago called:
"Would you like to see a dedicated Snake game for the N900?"

It is an iconic classic Nokia game and we could put our own Maemo spin on it

Speaking of new things: the Video Editor project gets the second slot of Friday.

There is many GStreamer developers in Barcelona, Zaheer made innocently a proposal in the right time and all these developer will benefit from good UX input.
