hi everyone .. following up on the results of the MeeGo conference, it reinforced the need for some shared "elevator pitch" materials for Plasma when it comes to devices. i took a first run at it today, which you can find here:
http://community.kde.org/Promo/Strategy/Plasma#Why_use_Plasma_when_creating_a_consumer_device.3F it is still too verbose and probably contains lots of assumptions on my part which i am unable to identify due to my proximity to the subject matter. it is still just a first draft, but i'm unable to push it further today. there's a fairly strong limit to the length of time that i can productively poke and prod at a draft in a single sitting ... after which i end up making more useless edits than useful ones. ;) so i'll come back to it in the days to come after i've been away from it for a bit. however, i'd like input even at this early stage. particularly: * what is there but irrelevant (and should therefore be cut) * what isn't there but relevant (and should therefore be added) * what is not clear (and should therefore be reworded) in general, the smaller we can get it, the better it will be. hopefully it will end up concise enough for people presenting Plasma in the context of consumer electronics will be able to use spout something close to it from memory to great effect. that's the goal, anyways. it's not there yet. help me, obiwan kenobi. -- Aaron J.
