KDE and Amarok Present at the OpenExpo in Bern
==============================================

   On the 12th and 13th of March the 4th OpenExpo took place in Bern.
/ch/open oranises the fair every 6 months alternating in Bern and
Zurich. A wide variety of talks grouped into three different tracks
accompanied the fair.  This year more than 30 OpenSource Projects took
the opportunity to present themselves and their work to a wide audience.
KDE and the Amarok team was among them. The booths attracted many people
intersted in the improvements of KDE4 and Amarok2. Most were impressed
by the amazing efforts the project took to push KDE into a glorious
future.

development and structures of KDE's community and its organisational
processes and Nikolaj Hald Nielsen talked about Amarok2  in the

interested audience.

     Many thanks to the people at the booths - Luca Gugelmann, Mario
