Hey everyone! Less than 3 weeks left until the XMPP Summit #8 comes to Brussels.
This year, we've got something new! Nokia has generously offered to sponsor a mobile XMPP developer challenge. What does that mean? Starting from NOW, you can start writing a mobile application for ANY Nokia platform (Maemo / S60v3 / S60v5 ...). The requirements are: - The program must be FREELY available; OpenSource is preferred. - The application needs to be demoed on a Nokia Phone (we have demo devices on location) on the XMPP Summit (Monday). If you are not attending the Summit, find someone who is, and can demo / explain the app, and collect the prize. - Limit of 1 application per attendee. - Substantially new code, as decreed on the day by the judges. (If you have questions, the judges will give guidance, but the final decision will be made on the day) - Judges aren't eligible. - And of course: The application needs to use XMPP in some way. The judges are: Jack Moffitt (XSF Board Chairman); Kevin Smith (XSF Council Chairman); Kristian Luoma (Nokia) So what can I win? We have one Nokia N900 generously sponsored by Nokia which the judges will hand over to the best application. We will also have a second prize, whose winner is chosen by all the attendees (participants excluded). This prize consists of 2 XMPP books (XMPP: The Definitive Guide; Professional XMPP Programming with Javascript and Jquery) and an official XMPP T-Shirt. So, open up those text editors and start coding, and good luck!
