When I heard about Reprap for the first time it was partly responsible for renewing my faith in the potential of technology to help us get us out of the mess we're in, rather than just making it worse. Was pleased to see it in the flesh, and meet one of those responsible, ask some lingering questions, and get some reassurance that fine minds are at work on the home plastic recycling plant that it really needs to be sustainable.

+== list8D LTI integration ==
+
+We put together the initial dev8D challenge submission in 2 stages. Steve set up a moodle instance and installed the Moodle Basic LTI plugin and spent some time tracking down bugs. Ben took the PHP Basic LTI libraries and wrote a script to extract a simple list out of the list8D JSON API based on the course information provided by LTI. This came second in the LTI challenge, which we're delighted about.
+
+It was very easy to get a working proof of concept, and this has been useful taking the work forward as you can tear down and rebuild properly knowing the basic bits work.
+
+Since returning from dev8D, we've submitted some more changes and bugfixes back to the Basic LTI Moodle plugin. Our Moodle integration going live in mid april 2010 using LTI with some additional changes to allow the direct proxying of content without relying on an iframe.
+
+Learning about LTI has saved us a substantial amount of time - with perhaps 3 days work we've saved 2 weeks. In addition, the nice decoupled nature of the consumer and producer mean that we should save on maintenance time. Upgrading one is unlikely to break the other, and we've gained the ability to embed list8D in other VLEs effectively for free.

+=== PDF Structure and Syntactic Analysis for Metadata Extraction and Tagging ===
+
+* code: http://code.google.com/p/pdfssa4met/
+
+Originally created as an entry for an [[Talk11|ePrints bounty]] for metadata extraction, this mini-project consists of Python code for analysing structure and syntax of PDF contents in order to derive information about the document e.g.:
+* headings
+** title
+** author
+** chapter / section headings
+* references
+** title
+** volume
+** page numbers
+** cited publications and URLs
+* suggested social tags
+
+Headings are identified by looking for text that deviates from the norm in terms of size, colour, or weight (bold).
+
+References are identified by looking for patterns in the "References" section. Elements making up each reference are also identified by pattern matching.
+
+Titles, Authors, Headings, References and the component elements are tagged with quick and dirty XML tags.

+Some suggestions for next year (before I forget them!):
+* A local web cache, to avoid external software for workshops from being downloaded lots of time
+* A local FTP server to easily share code/software/data during the event
+* A list/map of wifi enable pubs/cafes - somewhere for people to gather and code in the evenings
+* Ending the bounties earlier, with time to demo them at prizegiving - would have loved to see some of the entries in action!

+I didn't book on Dev8D expecting to do hardware, but I totally fell in love with Arduino in Gary's clear and interesting introductory workshop. Glad I decided to carry on into the afternoon, I learnt a lot but most importantly I came away with a lot of confidence that I'll be able to do Cool Stuff with it at home - that's the mark of a good teacher.

+When I heard about Reprap for the first time it was partly responsible for renewing my faith in the potential of technology to help us get us out of the mess we're in, rather than just making it worse. Was pleased to see it in the flesh, and meet one of those responsible, ask some lingering questions, and get some reassurance that fine minds are at work on the home plastic recycling plant that it really needs to be sustainable.

+This data was then visualised using [http://code.google.com/apis/charttools/ Google's Chart Tools], to view things like:

+
+* Enjoyed lightning talks. Interesting subjects, reasonable duration (15 minutes).
+* Interesting projects in Projects Zone.
+* Bounties were good fun.
+* Friendly organizers. Nice atmosphere from the outset.
+* Got introduced to a whole bunch of technologies, projects, services, etc, three of which I plan to look into in more depth.
+* Wifi too slow
+* Didn't have time to work on bounties (too many other nice events to attend!). Could have done so if bounties were advertised before the event itself.
+* Some projects required prior setup which could have been carried out before the event.
+* Time for questions/discussion after the talks was limited.
+* Program booklet contained two pages for each day which was a bit confusing. Listing all events by time (be it project, talk, meal, game, etc) would be better I think.
+* Suggest preparing a notepad with the list of events and a space for each event to take notes on. Add a list of participants in the notepad too to make it easy to exchange contact details.
+* Every hour was worth it.

This isn't a comprehensive review of dev8d, checkout the twitter stream (that link uses twapperkeeper by the way, the guy who created it was there and it was great talking to him), and wiki for and much else on the web for what went on.

+* Had looked for a TwapperKeeper API last autumn but failed to find one. Met the developer of TwapperKeeper who is going to send me an early copy of the docs for their new API so I can give feedback before it is released
+* Plan to do a session on getting started with android and iphone dev for our team at work when I get back based on what I learned from Phil Raymond's talk and Sam Easterby-Smith's workshop
+* I didn't enter the Mobile bounty challenge, but thinking about what I might do for it gave me an idea for what to do with mobile versions of our site that I don't think I'd have had if the challenge hadn't existed
+* I've been reading up more about google gadgets, wookie and W3C as a result of the event - I think these might be really relevant to our site long-term. Likewise I'm feeling very inspired to make our data available as linked data - ask me again in a few months time to see if I've done anything with all this!
+* I met one of the Mendeley developers and am hoping to get in touch to look at how we might be able to do some integration with the academic references on our site and Mendeley.
+* Spent time working on a possible website for Developer Contact with Graham Klyne
+* Am hopefully getting an introduction to the Social Innovation Camp folk about doing something similiar for HE
+* If I'd known how much public speaking I'd have ended up doing, I think I might have been too scared to come! You don't learn how to be good at such things overnight, but I think the event has been good at increasing my confidence at doing such things and felt like a very friendly environment for this.
+* Generally feel re-energised and inspired by all the great stuff that I saw!
