Fwd: KDE Eco | measurement labs | community meetup Fri. 8 Oct. 13:00 CEST

Hello Kate enthusiasts (please CC me to any responses),

I would like to personally reach out to the Kate community to invite you to 
the next KDE Eco meetup (Fri. 8 Oct. 13:00 CEST)! We will meet at the 
following BigBlueButton room:

    https://meet.kde.org/b/jos-l59-2i1-9yt

Please see below for the full announcement.

In order to make FOSS/KDE software more resource efficient, KDE Eco aims to set 
up measurement labs and measure the energy consumption of various 
applications. Given its popularity, *Kate is high on the list of applications 
to measure*. And once measurements have been done, applying for Germany's 
Blauer Engel eco-certification is straightforward. This eco-label recognizes 
environmentally-friendly software design and will differentiate Kate from other 
text editors, ultimately making it an even more attractive alternative for 
users.

It would be wonderful to have you join the conversation next week!

Cheers,
Joseph

Hi all,

the second KDE Eco community meetup will take place on *Friday 8 October* at 
*13:00 CEST* (UTC+2). We will meet at the following link:

    https://meet.kde.org/b/jos-l59-2i1-9yt

All are welcome!

This meeting will be focused on *energy consumption measurements in the lab*. 
One of KDE Eco's long-term goals is to make FOSS/KDE software more efficient -- 
labs are one way to measure and then drive down the energy consumption of our 
software! The main goal of the meeting is to identify what needs to be done to 
get there: who, what, where, when, how?

_Plan_
- 10-15 minutes: Achim Guldner, Franziska Mai & Christopher Stumpf will 
present details of the measurement lab at Umwelt-Campus
- 5-10 minutes: David Hurka will provide an overview of task automation tools 
(e.g., Actiona) for replicating standard usage scenarios
- 35-50 minute discussion question: What do we need to do to set up 
measurement labs for the FOSS/KDE community?
- Breakout rooms: Who can do what?

Another idea to discuss: organizing a Sprint to set up a lab and do a measure-
athon of KDE software for /Blauer Engel/ eco-certification.

I look forward to seeing many of you (again) there!

Cheers,
Joseph
