Good morning edu crowd I'm in the process of organizing another meeting and developer sprint in Randa next year. Somewhere around May or June 2011 but more about the date below. Last year the bigger group there consisted of Amarok and th multimedia guys and gals. The smaller group were you. And I'd like to make the small group constant in this meetings. And the small group consists of you. That means I'd like to provide you with infrastructure next year again. BTW: The other, bigger group next year consists of Nepomuk. I was already in contact with annma about this and she told me that she and Aleix [*] would like to be near a network (think school network) to work with them and on this topic. And we were not sure if KDE e.V. would pay for two meetings (my counter proposal: one meeting somewhere else about the network topic and one in Randa about data and Nepomuk...). Anyway annma proposed to bring this topic up here. What do you think? This discussion is about the offer of the location and organization? Not necessarily about the topic of the meeting. I just want to fix the date to reserve the house, contact the cook and start to find sponsors. So I'd like to set a first deadline for a decision for the middle of next week. When there starts no big discussion I'll decide then about the smaller group of the next Randa meeting (Konquest 2011). And now two last things:(Continue reading)

Ok. If nobody shouts against it I'll write an email to the e.V. board tomorrow
to see if they would sponsor two meetings. Will CC: this list.
If they agree I would invite you to Randa again. And probably the local
