Hey all,

I would like to start a small initiative to update/create some stall posters 
that can be used at KDE stalls. My main incentive is the upcoming Qt World 
Congress in about two months. (An excellent opportunity to increase KDE's 
visibility in the industry.)

The following proposal hence focuses on that use case: posters for a stall at 
the Qt World congress. Specifically, the audience are developers, most of them 
know open source software, yet a lot work on commercial software. After 
several chats during Akademy, I have three posters in mind:

1. KDE Frameworks
* what is KF5?
* what does they provide
  - additional features
  - quality (unit tested, only reviewed commits, structured development)
  - LGPL2.1+ licensing
* how are they structured (tiers)
* important frameworks (mostly tier1 frameworks)
* about 2 example frameworks in details (e.g. KArchive)
(reasoning: conference audience is actual target audience for frameworks)

2. KDE Tooling
* KDevelop
* Massiv Visualizer
* Okteta (?)
* ...?
(reasoning: most important applications for developers)

3. Plasma 5
* focus on architecture and technologies (e.g. Wayland integration)
* focus on different form factors (desktop <-> mobile)
* present the cool fresh look of Plasma 5
(reasoning: Plasma desktop alone is mostly interesting for developers already 
using it; hence focus on technologies, which can get more developers 
attracted)

What do you think? What am I missing? What should not be included?
Or do you see a much better approach?

Depending on how much feedback I get, I will reach out (sooner er later) to 
the frameworks list to get some detailed input about the specific contents, 
before making some first drafts for the next discussion round.

Cheers,
Andreas
