Lars making the opening speech
It's almost a month since we gathered at the Estrel Conference Center to spend two days talking about Qt, where it is and where it's heading.
The Summit started off with Lars Knoll giving the state of the project speech, which included status updates from various maintainers. The whole opening session can be watched on Youtube. One thing to raise from Lars' speech is the need to unify Qt, to bring all Qt users closer to each other.
The two days contained over forty sessions on matters ranging from the use of box2d with QML to two sessions on QtCore. You can find many of the session notes from the Summit schedule page. And the more technical topics have threads on the Developer mailing list, which you can find from the list archives (search for threads marked QtCS).
Over 40 sessions in two days
The weather in Berlin was exceptionally hot, bordering on uncomfortable outside. Luckily the conference center had good air conditioning. However during the evening event we could enjoy the warmth outside in the garden. The setting was very good for continuing the discussions that started during the day. The hardiest participants continued their discussion at the hotel lobby bar after the official evening event was closed.
Evening event
A big part of events like the Contributors' Summit are the coffee break and corridor discussions that take place in between sessions. The venue provided enough tables and a couple of good corners with benches to spend some time drafting the upcoming session agenda or working on the topics raised in previous sessions.

A big thank you to all the participants and of course to our sponsors!
Hope to see many of you at the Developer Days!
hi, i really liked the screenshot composer demo but it is not in the dojo repository. is it possible to make it available?
Thanks for the videos, I usually cannot attend those events, so it's nice watch them.
PS: I'm in shock. Am I seeing KDE's founder using Gnome? Is the laptop with the KDE Sticker his?
@victor noagbodji: That's "Screenie". Ariya put it on http://screenie.googlecode....
Great stuff... Love Ariya presentation. It was mentioned by Ariya that the code is already available ! Can you please point us in the right direction?
@eric Most of the demos can be found in the Qt Labs repositories: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-... ."graphics-dojo" has most of the demos you saw in the talk. "wolfenqt" is the 3D-demo. Some of the demos are included in (the upcoming) Qt 4.6's examples/demos.
Guys, why sound is so extremely bad? No good micro?
@Uku: You guessed it right, bad micro :) Actually, it was a spontaneous decision to record the talks. I did not have the direct audio from the micros which the Trolls used. So, the built-in micro of the camera had to pick up the sound from the room. That causes ambient noise and delay.
And if you don't want to miss future Graphics Dojo demos, put http://bit.ly/graphicsdojo in your bookmarks!
