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 />

Alex Graveley<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 />
