-(11:30-12:00) Jan will present his simple jabber project
+The Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP)1 is like the web. It is
+far too complex to be implemented in one program with the Unix philosophy in mind.
+But like the web, you have to deal with it. It is the only open
+and widely used instant messaging protocol on the internet.
+Its extensibility is the main reason that an implementation in a single
+program is nearly impossible. This talk describes an approach to master this problem.

+This talk will discuss the deficiencies of the RGBA color space and
+present the Farbfeld format to store images in a device independent
+way using the Lab color space.
+Additionally, an alternative to incorporated, namely imposed, image
+compression is discussed, evaluating the advantages over other image
+formats using different kinds of images.

-(15:00-16:00) UTF-8 everywhere? Writing Unicode compliant software that sucks less by FRIGN
+(15:00-16:00) *UTF-8 everywhere? Writing Unicode compliant software that sucks less*, Laslo Hunhold
+
+This talk will discuss UTF-8 and its history, how and when you have to
+deal with it and which challenges are faced along the way, evaluating
+its advantages over other character encodings.
+Besides more trivial problems like decoding and encoding, advanced
+issues like string comparison, case conversion and normalization are
+discussed, leading to the conclusion that the POSIX wchar-interfaces
+are broken by design.
+Using suckless principles, problems with the ICU libraries are discussed
+and a midway drawn between total localization and minimalism,
+presenting possible solutions.
