A good way to prepare is to get yourself set up with a KDE 4 development 
environment. There's material on techbase and the wiki on how to do that, and 
the friendly folks in #kontact will be glad to help as well. That way you can 
start hacking and getting introduced to things right away, at Akademy. If 
you're interested in learning Qt4, trying to fix little things in trunk is 
probably not a bad way to do so.

As far as sitting close to us, I assume you mean during the hacking part of 
the meeting, that's not a problem, if you can look past our various personal 
hygene issues and the fact that we are a bunch of opinionated egomaniacs with 
a tendency to talk too much. Ok, maybe that's mostly me, but still ;).  
Anyone who wants to help out is always very welcome to join us. 

Cheers,

Till
