It’ll be held in the 770 room on Sunday at 12:00.

Here are some documentation pointers for Hildon desktop extenders:

In preparation for the event, I’d love to hear from people interested in the Hildon desktop, and specially from people developing home and status menu widgets.

Updated: The final Maemo 5 SDK has been released, I’ve changed the libhildondesktop link to the newest version.

The release contains an update to the WebKit engine to the upstream version, so in addition to a lot of new features and improvements, most NPAPI plugins will work out of the box in any application that uses QtWebKit.
