What kind of problem do you have with Kontact?

The list of people doesn't have to be 100% accurate. Don't take this so 
serious. We don't need to find formal criteria for who is allowed to be there 
or whatever. If people don't feel like presenting themselves there, that's 
ok. List people just with their name or leave them out. It's a dynamic 
community and there are no jobs, titles, salaries, whatever associated with 
the listing on the Kontact web site. If it gives a rough impression of who 
stands behind it and puts some faces on the names which appear on the mailing 
list, in IRC, in the about box or wherever people talk about Kontact, that's 
ok. It's much more important that the information about the application is 
appealing than that the list of contributors is complete.

Why should we do that? Both sites have the same problem, that there are not 
enough people working on them to make them really great. If we now have 
somebody who works on the Kontact web site, we should be happy and see that 
this web site is improved. By combining it again with all the developer 
stuff, we will only make the job much harder.

We should talk about the web site at the meeting, yes.
