I'd definitely attend it, though I'm not sure what if any questions I've had. I consider I tend to sit on both sides of the KDE/Plasma fence (not that it's really a fence, but as one that has contributed a bit to both sides and doesn't tend to keep up with plasma motivations, etc. I feel somewhat like an outsider with a bit of inside knowledge). For me a bunch of plasma still feels like magic as I've no clue how to fix itches I have with it (why doesn't the comic applet work these days, or why does it think last weeks dilbert has no successor for example). I really don't expect any answers to these in here. just pointing out some possible coordination that could possibly happen at such a meeting I think. Jeremy > > -- > Aaron J.
