Last week I attended this year’s State of the Map (SotM) in Paris, France, OpenStreetMap’s annual conference.

Following the recent look at the state of GNSS API on Linux Mobile, I did a similar exploration of where we are with the Near Field Communication (NFC) stack.

Time for another bi-monthly update on what happened around Itinerary!

Last weekend I joined an in-person workshop at HTW Berlin for discussing topics around mapping indoor spaces in OpenStreetMap.

In my last post on Android platform integration I had suggested increasing the focus on Linux on mobile phones, due to Google’s ongoing attempts to close down Android for us.

Quite a few things have happened around the Android platform support for KDE applications in recent months, so high time for another update on that.

Since the previous report two month ago, Itinerary got support for booking URLs, a newer foundation for its Android packages, and more detailed shared vehicle information.

Last weekend I joined parts of the FOSSGIS Community Meeting at Linuxhotel in Essen, Germany, focusing on topics related to organizing this year’s edition of the Open Transport Community Conference.

I spent the last week in Graz, Austria, attending a KDE sprint as well as Grazer Linuxtage.

Last week I attended this year’s FOSSGIS-Konferenz in Göttingen, Germany, focusing on public transport and indoor navigation topics.
