The idea is to make a (workshop-like) session about the service-oriented world, with pragmatism in mind. aseigo and ervin have been coerced into helping. It'd be composed by two parts, training and hacking.
Training
The training part would touch these topics (not necessarily in order):
- the Service-Oriented Computing paradigm: what is it, and how can we use it?
- how to exploit the service-oriented paradigm through the Jolie language.
- bridging Jolie and Qt with kevin's latest cool library
- the Plasma::Service+MetaService API explained. Service-oriented plasmoids!
- how to make powerful service compositors/orchestrators in Jolie, and use them as backends for plasmoids or $insert_your_app_here.
- use cases and surprises (?)
- questions and answers
Hacking
Everyone starts his editor of choice and starts hacking on some service-oriented UI/Plasmoid/etc, getting help and sharing ideas.
It will be an excellent occasion to improve the framework too (not only the C++ libraries but even the Jolie framework itself, as I'll be there), as there will probably be necessities that could be implemented as a Jolie protocol or some other extension.
What I'd like to have are ideas and comments about this. Is there any topic you'd like to be covered in particular? Questions to be answered?
Of course it would be nice to have plasma developers attending, along with any other people interested in integrating jolie/service-oriented computing in their application or framework.

So, dear reader, would *you* attend? =)

i would attend :) i've always been interested in SoC but never really got involved nor really read about it, this seems like a perfect way to get a feel for it and what it can do.
cheers,

awesome :) I've always wanted a chance to understand jolie better.
lfranchi: hmm, we seem to have an acronym conflict. I've always assumed SoC was summer of code :)
