Generic KDE 4 talk

-If you want to prepare a talk about KDE, you can use some of the slides and information in the following presentation. This is a rather technical presentation, aimed mostly at Free Software enthousiast, think geeks. Non-technical audiences would probably require a more end-user oriented approach like described below. Programmers interested in KDE development on the other hand would probably like to see some actual code. - - -

A few pointers

- -You might want to explain FOSS first, and what it is, how it works. Why it works. I generally ask 'who knows the difference between Freeware and Free Software?' and take it from there. If the public knows that difference and understands FOSS, you can go deeper by asking 'and what's the difference between Free Software and Open Source Software?'. This can then help you explain the history and wider movement (Foss is part of (and inspired) the free culture movement - sharing knowledge and creativity. Think wikipedia and creative commons). And OSS points to the more practical advantages - an efficient development model which many companies are investing millions in, like Nokia, IBM, Intel and even Microsoft. - -But for many presentations, the best way to go forward is probably not to try and enforce a completely new philosophy on them right away. Starting with the philosophy is good and vital, but keep it to the bare minimums. - -You should also be careful with talking too much about the underlying technology. Mention it, maybe even show a few things, we have developed incredibly powerful technologie. But especially for a non-technical audience, it's time to know when to get to the goods. Show Amarok, Digikam, Krita and play with Plasma,... Programmers might like a short view of Kate and maybe KDevelop. KDE Games and KDE-Edu also have very nice things. - -To certain public you could present a case study. For example for people managing servers you could show some neat remote tricks like the fish:/ kioslave and KRDC. Of course the case study could also be a series of demonstrations of doing common things in a very nice and effective KDE-way. - - -
