no, it's alive and kicking even if progressing slowly (no, i'm not directly 
involved)
we have for instance a gsoc project about building a library and a set of  
"dataengines" (in the Plasma jargon) for the api of multimedia related sites, 
sich as flickr and youtube, that will be used by our media center

relevand places to discuss with the silk people are kde-s...@kde.org and #kde-
silk irc channel on freenode

I hope you will be able to make it, all the MeeGo people will be more than 
welcome and we will be really happy to have a chat with them :)
there will also be many more talks related to mobile technology, so it's going 
to be really interesting.

Cheers,
