+Desktop Types
+
+* Little hobby of mine
+
+* Intersect a number of dynamic type systems to find the core
+
+  - Null, numbers, strings, lists, maps
+
+  Missing: association lists, turn out to be more useful
+           than maps for interchange.
+
+* Define language neutral static types
+
+  - Enums, time, coordinates, ...
+
+* Write bindings of static types for static languages, documentation
+  systems, introspection APIs.
+
+-------------------------
+Nano-DOM
+
+* Mapping of subset of XML into Desktop Types.
+
+* Used to define context properties

+Static Desktop Type
+
+* Dynamic desktop types: simple, fixed.
+
+* Static desktop types: expressive, extensible
+
+* Hierarchy, parameters.

+
+* Finding a home on freedesktop.org
+
+* Lobbying for mind share

+* Adding GVariant and Python into the picture

+* Getting the D-Bus protocol right
+
+* Simple aggregation in client, maybe
+
+  (Sum, append, average, max, ...)
+
+* 'Context Cron'
