Well, I'm currently very busy at work, but if there is something I can do, I 
can sure help a bit. I DO have a wedding (my brother) on the 30th and a KDE 4 
talk the 31th so I have some preparing to do for other stuff. 

Maybe an investigation is in place here, first.

How many core KDE developers have the weekend of 30/31/01 time for a meeting?

Or should it not be a weekend? If nobody has time, we can stop this discussion 
immediately...
