Hello, all.
Now here's TB as
Press or TB
Express, and he is the maintainer
of the immense power plan project for
Android. I love it.
I have to say I love it, really.
And he's now here and explaining and
Kubler-Ross retrospective of what
happened in the eventful plan.
And so I will hear what he's
telling us.
Please, Stan's.
Thank you.
Welcome.
I'm Toby. I live in Berlin.
I do Android and one
of the projects is even pipeline.
I like to give you an introduction about
what happened and,
well, what is the event pipeline and
oh, it's what happened in the last year.
I must say I talked about this
before at Divock this
year, but since then a
lot has happened.
So this is an
update. And but
it's also for beginners.
So you if you don't
know the app or the project,
I will tell you.
What does the event for plan?
It's conference up, it's
kind of a general purpose conference app,
so it's been used
that smaller and bigger conferences.
It's there
since many years, and
in this year there have been
many conferences that never
used to before.
So the audience grew.
But.
The project is open source.
It's available on GitHub.
And as you can
see, it's written in Java
and Kotlin.
Scotland has taken over and
it's Apache licensed.
And as
people contributing besides me.
Currently, I'm the only maintainer, but
from time to time does valuable
contributions.
And so
can you.
And this was also the
conference for this
very event.
There's other apps
also, but there's also
this one, and
you might have used it.
If not, give it a try.
And I like to,
uh yeah, tell you
what it's all about.
But before a
bit of history, I like to point
out I did not create the project.
I stepped in 2013
and contributed.
Ever since, actually, it started with an
icon. There was like a calendar icon
that I couldn't like really
figure out, so I asked to replace
it. And the former maintainer
took mobile, replaced
it. So that was my first contribution
this year.
A lot of people also helped.
I like to think, especially
Katie and Mathias,
who have been active in
recent months and helped me a lot with
getting this ready for season three.
Nowhere of
further, I like to thank people who
donated for the project and
the time and work I put
into this, and
I also appreciate people
giving reviews and ratings on Google Play
so other people can see like,
Oh, if this app is actually
good enough to be installed.
So here's a short introduction
the for me special
thing about the episode is this great
view that you'll see when
you open the app.
It allows you to directly compare
which sessions running
in parallel so you can choose and
switch where you want.
And besides that,
there is a
function to free and to put
favorites on like
to favor your sessions and
then organize yourself, pick your
your favorite talks
and and then,
uh.
Look them later, you
can export those favorites
as plain text, or
there's an integration with the Chaos
Flex app, which allows
you to watch the videos later on
media, CCD or on YouTube.
And
don't forget to use that.
So later on, if you watch the
recordings.
Also, there's is the alarm function,
which wakes you up, so
you don't miss the talk.
You can configure the timing.
So if you like need
some time to go somewhere or
switch rooms and at a
reword conference?
And
also, those scary
updates to the app
downloads the data on a regular
basis and then notifies you
if there's any plan updates
or
like a description or
any thing like the speaker
changed or session
change to another room.
This is then highlighted on schedule
changes screen, so you
actually don't miss anything.
But there's even more you can export
sessions to your calendar if you'd like
to.
You can share a session with
other people.
It it gives you the link and a
description, but also the
time and the time zone, which is
important if you're on an international
conference and people and other time
zones, they
certainly need the time and the time zone
information.
You can give feedback which takes
you to the website of the actual
back end of which is free talks and
this conference.
And then you can
leave a comment and read the talk.
And I highly encourage to do so.
So please give feedback to all the
speakers
on input.
Person Conference See three
navigation project,
which navigates you in Doha
to different rooms.
So there's an integration.
Was that not relevant right now, but
in the future, I hope again.
Chaos Flex. I mentioned that and
last but not least as an integration with
the English system.
So if you are an angel
and you have shifts working
you, then you can load your
very personal shifts into the app.
It shows up as an extra column
and then you,
you know, went to work when to
watch a session.
The app is currently available in
11 languages.
It's been translated
into a Dutch, French and Spanish lately,
like this year and end of last
year, which became available and
dispersion and
very lately,
a friend added Polish, which is
very nice though.
Thank you a lot.
And um
yeah, please be encouraged to add
other languages.
This year, the
EP has been released
19 times.
That means, like for one event
have been several
releases and
over all those 10 events.
And as I mentioned and beginning in the
beginning, there's
other conferences outside of the
CCC bubble,
like the Libra office conference, which
was like an international but online
conference.
There was the first 4G and
bonus ideas.
And that's the
OpenStreetMap community.
It was a person conference in South
Africa and
many more.
And
if you're interested to have the
conference at your event,
there's like three
back end that works
out of the box, which is fab
and pre talks and
a waiver.
Now, I like to
tell you about
some highlights of this year.
There were some issues
about scrawling law, so when you're
navigating the app, you open the data
screen and you never it back.
It's a bit annoying if if the
app jumps to
its position, so
scroll position bugfixes should
be done. If not, let me know.
Through the internet
and the COVID crisis,
it became very obvious
that time zone support
is very important.
And all
the time information in the web.
Our.
Like
compatible with with time zones, so
whenever you're in a different time zones
and your devices, then
this should work and you can even switch
to your own time zones and so on.
So if you're not interested in
the date and time information of
Germany, then
you can switch in the settings.
Then there's a clickable web and
email addresses. This wasn't the case in
the session description.
Now it's automatically
highlighted and
and clickable, so
it should be more convenient to actually
look back on those.
There's a new customization
guide, so if you're interested
in providing the app to your
event, please stick
to this customization guide and
please let me know if anything is unclear
or you can't
like another tool on your own.
And translations, as I mentioned.
I also revised the Settings screen,
there's like new
descriptions for each item, and you
can see the actual setting that is
this current.
The session information that is
shared to the calendar app
has been completed.
It was just a link before and and
and like the abstract, and now we have
the full description in your calendar.
I worked on accessibility
a bit, the session information
read out much better now
on on Talkback.
So if you
select the session and
in the overview screen or
in the detailed screen, this should be
much better.
One of the very big
workloads that happened this
year is the architecture
rewrite the app
had several issues with updating
data, and now
over the last month,
I switched to
a reactive approach
where.
The data comes from the back and
pushed into the screen, you will
see updates when data is updated.
There's nothing that you have to do.
You won't really notice, but
I hope all the other issues are gone
and.
Well, let me know.
The alarm screen is not ready yet
or the other screens, speaking of
favorites, the main screen
and a detailed screen
and schedule updates screen
are updated, so
this should be very convenient.
And I mentioned that before
and due to other conferences
like the Debconf
Conference.
I could add wave our support.
It's a python back and like
the three talks as a big and
for us three and
the Upwork's was waiver to.
And the reason for.
Notice the question how you can get
involved.
I picked a few
topics. There's more
and maybe there's something where you
want to join the project or
just join it for one task.
It's up to you.
You could review
the accessibility.
I really look.
I'm looking for a person who
can do that, who can actually
try that out and has experience.
Please let me know if you're interested.
The detailed screen
could be redesigned as some information
that that are missing like duration
and the icons could be
moved to another place.
If you are interested to discuss this,
please let me know.
I would love to have code
coverage configured with
Joe Coco, for example, and Sonar
Cube.
Then it would be nice to
have a search function and to further
sessions,
it would be nice to set
up GitHub actions for running
the tests to build a project and
maybe deployment.
You can actually donate
to the project.
There's like
a profile on Patreon, on
liberal pay and on get sponsors.
And the EPA's still
using some bitmaps and a few places
for four icons, and those
can be replaced by savages.
This would also allow it allow
to customize them much easier,
like colorizing and putting
like the the theme
of the conference.
And last but not least, it would
be nice if someone wants to set
up a translation
for the project was to it's like
transfix effects were played
or anything better.
That's not all, as I said, but
in the issue tracker, there's more.
Please have a look.
You can also leave your own ideas
if you are not into creating
an issue.
There's maybe
a better place in the discussion board
so you can choose if you write an issue
or or first discuss things.
And that's
it.
There was a short introduction
and a short overview of the last
year.
I would be happy to see you
on the project.
Preach. Please reach out to me,
either on GitHub or on Twitter.
My hand is there on the bottom right
tbsp.
RC.
And the slides of
the stock will be available
on slide show.
Thank you.
Hi, thank you very much.
One question from the internet
is how does a
events plan works
with other planning tools like
V talks or
other where
the program is
coordinated?
The general set up is that pre talks
is to like
a database of all the sessions, and
what the app does is
downloading all the data
in one file and then
displaying it.
So there's like no
and like no modification of the content.
Mm-Hmm. Um, what pre talks?
That is what will
be displayed.
I mentioned the translation.
There's 11 languages.
That means the app itself with all the
texts is translated, but the content
comes from pre talks, so it's up to
the back end.
In this case, Peru talks to
translate text over there.
OK, thank you very much.
Um, I
think and
no more questions
to know.
Um, so thank you very much
for the talk.
