I am pleased to announce that Kongress 1.0 has been released. Kongress is a conference companion application enabling users to organize their participation in conferences.

The first release of Kongress offers the following features:

• The schedule of a collection of free software conferences, displayed in various ways: full, by day, or by category - if the conference is organized in different tracks.

• The scheduled time of each talk shown either in the organizer's or local time zone.

• Users can maintain a list of favorite talks per conference.

• A notification can be displayed before the beginning of a favorite talk. At the moment, notifications are supported only on Plasma 5.20 (or later).

The primary target user-base of Kongress is people attending a conference with a Linux mobile phone. It also works on desktop, leveraging the convergence capabilities of Kirigami.
