As I previously announced, I’ll be speaking at POSSCON 2011 in Columbia, South Carolina on March 23. I’ll be on the panel “The Future of Open Source” from 10 to 10:45 am and then I’ll be giving the talk “Landmines for Open Source in the Mobile Space” from 1:10 to 1:35 pm. Here’s the abstract for the talk:
With all the progress open source software has made in the last few years, especially Linux, things don’t seem quite so certain in the area of software for mobile devices. In this talk I’ll discuss some of the problems developers are facing as they try to build applications for the hottest platforms and the choices they have available to reach the maximum number of users.
As I prepare the talk over the next few weeks I’ll put some links up here to relevant sites that support some of the points I’ll be making or provide more information.
