Devcon 2018 - Sofia - Part III

Sep 30, 2018

DevCon

One more day, with enough content to warrant a separate blog post - partly because people are still here for the most part, partly because of new stuff that's been added to the agenda as we've gone along, and partly because of the topics that, despite our best efforts...

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night (delete as appropriate - we're a global community). The world has turned once more, the sun has crawled into the sky, and we're back in the room. Nate began the day with an update on the Foundation's financial status : income,...

<blinks in the light> What, a year already? Yup, twelve months have passed, we're all a year older, the world is still mad, and we're once again sitting in an overly-warm, windowless, anonymous conference room, discussing everyone's favourite media software while...

The final day of Devcon - still lots to get through, although, for the sake of some team members, we might need to speak slowly and quietly... We started the day with a Foundation financial overview from natethomas . Even as a non-profit, volunteer-run organisation,...

Day Two dawns... most people are bright-eyed and ready for another day, although, if I'm honest, some people may be here more in body than in spirit... First on today, chewitt from LibreELEC gave us an update: the installed base continues to grow, with the Raspberry Pi...

Well, 2017 has turned out to be unusual, and we're not just talking world politics. This year, we've managed to bring the newly-extended team together for a second time; it's something we'd like to do more often, although it's unlikely that we'll be able to do it every...

So - we've got to Day Three already, which means the final day of this DevCon. As the church bells rang in the day on this cloudless Sunday morning, the team was looking jaundiced. You can see the strains showing: long days of intense concentration are taking their...

Day two dawns on what is a much better day in now-sunny Portugal. The team has emerged, blinking slowly in the unfamiliar daylight - copious amounts of espresso have been drunk to neutralise the effects of all those craft beers - and we're off once again. This is also...

Welcome to DevCon 2017! Unlike previous years, where we've tried to give a live blog of what's happening (much harder than it might seem!), this year, we're aiming to simply summarise the event for you all in a series of posts. So: DevCon 2017. Thirty-two of the finest...

It’s been a busy year since XBMC’s 2012 Developers’ Conference. In that time, XBMC 12.2 was released. The Raspberry Pi became one of the most used (if not the single most used) pieces of hardware to run XBMC. Hardware decoding in Android has become a real thing if only...
