Speaker/Presentation

Neo FreeRunner
Mathieu Dubé will talk about the Openmoko (see their wiki) GSM telephone project. He'll go over the "openness" of the project - not only do they release the software source but they release the CAD files and the schematics of the device.

Mathieu will go through the architecture of the main "hackable" distribution and will talk about the others (such as Android) that can run on it. He'll cover the package manager and some applications also.

He'll finish up by showing how to flash the images and compile stuff from sources using the cross-compile and bitbake.
