There are many, indeed:

Embedded, Mobile and Automotive
Distributions
Graphics
Legal and Policy Issues
Open Document Editors
Valgrind, GDB and Debugging Tools
BSD
Community
...

And I guess that's exactly the reason why there is no Desktops DevRoom this
year: the topics of the devroom fit very well into other devrooms. For the
past 3-4 years, it was increasingly difficult to receive good talk
proposals, and half the schedule was composed by talks rejected by other
devrooms that I dumpster-dived :-/
