I'd be happy to have gPodder get some support from graphics wizards at the hackfest

GPodder in! http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo-Barcelon...Way_of_working

Thomas, start planning to join us in Barcelona. Instruction for you and the rest of invited participants will come hopefully on Monday-Tuesday.

We will decide on the rest of slots, aiming to confirm a project per day.

Something we are missing is more local developers. Not necessary to fill the slots for featured projects but at least to get involved in the hackfest. Alright, the PiTiVi lead developer is based in Barcelona. Who else?

yerga, actually your WordPy gets plenty of good feedback but would benefit from some UX love, isn't it? You also have a myriad of additional projects and I don't know what is currently your primary one.

Then jsmanrique had Elisator and other (Python?) ports. Not apps for the mainstream but still Elisator was something quite unique that would benefit a lot now that there is a good camera to take pictures of milk samples.

Who else, who else...? Who else in Spain has potentially cool stuff for Extras?

What do you think about getting Bilboed in the loop (another GStreamer Maemo lover) and work to bring PiTiVi to Maemo 5? http://www.pitivi.org/ Or something along those lines not to start from scratch.

Video editor is something currently missing and the N900 is capable of capturing great video shots, so the idea makes total sense and we are willing to support it.

I would most definitely like to come to provide input and feedback on what's needed to create a video editor on maemo. I'm in the process of writing code in GStreamer to make that even easier.

Yeah, I'd love to go, it's a perfect date (bank holiday here) but my main problem is that I have serious difficulties with Shakespeare's language in real life, so I don't know how productive would be the session.

Please come. Every time you find a new excuse. :P

That's not a valid excuse

If I attend, I promise that you'll not be the one only speaking bad English

. I can also speak Portuñol if that helps

.

I know it's a lame excuse, but it's the most important!
I promise to practice during this month as much as I can but YOU ALL HAVE BEEN WARNED

How last option I'll bring a pocket dictionary with me

Proposal: Let's to have some UX love for MaStory (formerly WordPy) then. It would be ideal that ARJWright would be there too because sure he has many things to say about it, but I don't know how feasible it can be.

Tomaszd, interersting but this belongs to the Maemo-Barcelona Long Weekend thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=33905 . Please delete your email here and post it there, where other people interested in L10n might see it. We still need to reach that critical mass.

Here the discussion is about the UX metts Code activity only. Yes, currently it's a bit of a mess but We'll sort out collateral events and discussions during next week.

@qgil, this may be in the wrong thread, but here goes:

I'm new to the community but I love design so I'm interested for sure:

Here is some of my Maemo Work

http://maemo.org/profile/view/joshuamaverick/

Personal IP Icons

Xournal Icons

maemo Mapper Icons (latest work)

WordPy App Icons

jMav smokeyLight Wallpapers

Personal Photo Frame Icon

Personal GPRS Icon

My company Maverick where I do Flash/Design as Interactive Director

I may be new here, but I really think I could help with furthering the design and visual appeal of maemo and maemo apps and widgets. Pick me, pick me! lol

Thanks for the consideration, I'd love to help out/contribute

Joshua Richards

In your opinion: great Maemo 5 apps needing some UX love
