People GUADEC talk
Wednesday, Johann and me, we presented People at the GUADEC in Istanbul. We were slightly disappointed by the number of attendants, especially that there was a considerable number of people attending the Soylent talk. However, we managed to get the attention of the Online Desktop people, as well as the Telepathy crew, and we had a quite positive feedback about our ideas and goals.
The demo during the talk went pretty well, and the phone backend for people (the one using Bluetooth to access your contacts directly from the phone) also worked flawlessly, but it seems like I went too quick during the demo, and most people didn’t really get what was happening in there :/
If you missed the talk, and are looking for the slides, they are available now, and you can find them here.
After the talk, we started a quick ad-hock BoF session about People, with Owen Taylor and Marina Zhurakhinskaya, as well as Robert McQueen and Travis Reitter which led to this:

We are now planning to quickly hack together an Online Desktop backend, and a Telepathy backend, and improve the DBus daemon before the 0.0.5 release.
