The Social Desktop - Keynote Akademy 2008

Frank Karlitschek discusses the potential for KDE applications to combine the best of desktop and cloud computing. He argues that KDE could integrate social features, easy deployment of applications, and user-controlled cloud data storage to provide a powerful yet secure desktop environment. ownCloud, an open-source file sharing and synchronization platform, is presented as part of KDE's vision for the future that brings together rich desktop applications, social features, and easy access to data from any device.

Frank Karlitschek discussed his vision for making software development and distribution easier. His Project Bretzn aims to allow developers to release applications to various app stores in 10 minutes or less from their IDE by integrating build services, cross-compilation, packaging and automatic publishing. It also seeks to simplify installation for users via a unified app store client with social features that accesses repositories through an open API. The goal is to streamline the entire process from development to distribution to empower both developers and users.

Earning Money with Free Software - Gran Canaria Desktop Summit

Frank Karlitschek discusses ways for KDE developers to earn money from free and open source software development. He proposes 7 ideas: 1) donations, 2) a job board, 3) bounties, 4) paid support, 5) a supporter program, 6) affiliate programs, and 7) an app store. Karlitschek plans to launch an app store on openDesktop.org the following week to allow KDE developers to sell binaries of their applications for Windows, Mac, and Linux. The goal is to enable developers to earn money through their free software work.

The Open-PC - OpenSourceExpo 2009

Frank Karlitschek proposes designing and building Linux PCs to increase marketshare of free software. He plans to launch Open-PC, a Linux computer available for 300-400 Euros, integrated with online services and supporting free software projects. Open-PC will ship in December 2009 with openSUSE, an Atom processor, 3GB RAM and 160GB HDD. The goal is to provide an affordable, high quality alternative to proprietary operating systems currently preinstalled on most PCs.

The document describes the four phases of building a conversational graph database that can handle large-scale web traffic. Phase 1 involved a prototype with two servers and PHP/MySQL that had issues with distribution and performance. Phase 2 added Amazon servers and Python with SimpleDB and SQS but had database slowness and workflow problems. Phase 3 introduced a RESTful API with Tokyo Cabinet and handled millions of calls per hour with no issues. Phase 4 added search capabilities by indexing millions of items per day but required large Amazon servers for speed. Each phase addressed problems from previous phases to improve scalability and performance.

Next Generation Browser Add-Ons

Anant Narayanan

Anant Narayanan gave a presentation on Jetpack, Mozilla's next generation browser extension platform. Jetpack aims to lower the barrier to creating extensions by using simple Javascript APIs instead of more complex technologies currently required. It allows real-time coding and testing of extensions directly in the browser. Jetpack also focuses on security through code signing and sandboxing extensions to restrict their capabilities to only what users have authorized. The platform is still in development with future goals of supporting more extension APIs and cross-browser compatibility.
