Hi Andreas,
I think it's a great idea, I'd say KDE Edu BoF's at Akademy are a must!
Wednesday works for me too.

<br>
2. Persona for Language Learning: While working on Artikulate I often came to<br>
the point where I wondered what the audience for this language learning<br>
software is. I think that it would be helpful to discuss this in a slightly<br>
broader scope, i.e., who do we expect using our language learning software.<br>
Currently, I am preparing a draft that defines two typical users (personas in<br>
modern speaking). If there is interest, I would also like to organize a BoF to<br>
talk about that with the scope of personas for all our Language Learning Edu<br>
applications.<br>
<br>
3. A general Edu BoF: Probably there will be some Edu people at Akademy, so<br>
why not use that chance and get together :) Looking at the notes from the last<br>
year&#39;s BoF I still can find topics that could be interesting to discuss:<br>
* Edu on Windows/other platforms<br>
* attracting teachers<br>
* where do we are/where are we going to<br>
* missing apps<br>
* providing Edu libs for others (I had a short chat some time ago with ingwa<br>
who wanted to use formula rendering from libkdeedu in Calligra; maybe there<br>
are also other libs)<br>
<br>
<br>
Please let me know if you are interested. I would like to have the BoFs either<br>
at Tuesday afternoon or at Wednesday. (Unfortunately I already have to leave<br>
at Thursday)<br>
<br>
Greetings,<br>
Andreas<br>
