    Workshop, get your hands dirty

    Kevin can show you how to get started in writing your own libsolid backend. A mini-hackfest for that could be nice. Put your name in front of a backend to adopt it:

    • Alsa
    • BlueZ
    • fstab/mtab, network shares only
    • UDev, for "other" devices (camera, mediaplayer, etc.)
    • UDisks
    • UPnP (Paulo, Friedrich)
    • UPower
