Panel Revisited<br />
This talk presents Gimmie, a new application designed to<br />
shift the direction of the desktop beyond the standard WIMP<br />
model (Windows, Icons, Menu, Pointer) towards one directly<br />
representing the concepts that modern desktop users use<br />
every day.<br />

<strong>GNOME</strong> and Bluetooth:<br />
past, present and future<br />
Bluetooth offers a range of functionality applicable to a<br />
modern desktop, but Gnome support has traditionally been<br />
poor. This talk will discuss what functionality is currently<br />
available, how to integrate it and what still needs to be<br />
done.<br />

Tangle Talk<br />
Matthew Garrett is a PhD student in genetics at Cambridge University. As<br />
head of the Ubuntu laptop team he has been involved in making laptops<br />
suck slightly less under Linux, and now seeks to tackle other problems<br />
such as poverty, hunger, war and Bluetooth support. Autographs are<br />
available for €20 or a beer. Laptop support comes at the same price.<br />
