[Kde-events] Hey dude, what's that, KDE? Some random notes about CeBit.

[Wendy Van Craen]

Hi ,

If I were living in Germany, I would love to step up for next CeBIT fairs.
Fortunately I am not, but Bart (Steccino) and me are probably willing to
help on next years fair.

About the Business-oriented folders...  I see an opportunity to do a
brainstorming about this on Akademy2008 (BOF-session), though I know that
there already is a folder, it is never bad to think big(ger).  I suggest
I'll try to organise a BOF on this issues (promo in general) and we should
all search for the best solutions.

Also a great Idea would be kind of a road-book, in which you can find all
necessary information on who to contact, merchandising prices, etcetera to
put in the Booth box.  I will start working on this asap (though probably
not very soon, since I also have Akademy...)
