Thinking about it, especially with Qt Dev Days coming up soon (where
we can have Amarok sessions), having the Amarok Dev Days this year
might get a bit too hectic. I suggest that we all try to come to Dev
Days. It's going to be a very cool event, and Knut will give out some
N950 there as well. We can ask him to reserve a bunch for the Amarok
team, for our Amarok Move port. I'm currently discussing with Knut how
to handle the ticket stuff best.

How about doing an ADD event early next year?

PS:
ADD - Amarok Dev Days has to be the coolest acronym, beats VDD -
VideoLan Dev Days by a long shot :p
