[KDE-India] Announcing KDE Meetup 2013

[Yash Shah]

Hey everyone,

The KDE Community at DA-IICT [0] is pleased to announce "KDE Meetup 2013"
[1] This two day conference scheduled in February will bring together Qt
Developers, KDE contributors, open source enthusiasts and users from all
across the nation. The meetup will give you the opportunity to learn,
share, contribute, innovate and create limitless possibilities by using
most emerging technologies.

*KDE Meetup is the first large scale open source conference to be held in
Gujarat and the largest **KDE/Qt event** in India since conf.kde.in in 2011.
*

For those of you who don't know, conf.kde.in was a big success and resulted
in a large number of KDE Contributors. We're  hoping that this KDE Meetup
will give similar results.

The agenda is still under development and can be found over here [2]

This meetup is an excellent platform for you to learn about FOSS and start
contributing to it. You will experience the KDE world, understanding the
latest developments happening in it. The Talks, Tutorials, Interactive
Sessions, Coding Jams will lay your foundations to become a part of KDE
community and even participate in programs like Google Summer of
Code<http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/homepage/google/gsoc2012>
 and Season of KDE <http://teom.org/blog/kde/announcing-season-of-kde-2012/>.
Last year, KDE was biggest participating organizing in GSoC with selection
of 60 students.The sessions
will range from the beginner to advanced level, to facilitate all kinds of
participants.
*
