+2. At least from what I've seen in the last months: there seems
to be not enough workpower.

If we decide that we have a replacement to work on, I completly agree.

It's a hard decision. The problem is that Osnabruck is hard to reach from
here (Siena, Italy). It takes some hours of car plus two flights or
car + one flight + train. In any case this means a whole day trip to go and a 
whole day trip back. This also means high transportation expense as I haven't 
been able to find a reasonable flight arrangement from low cost companies.

I'll drop a mail to the kde-pim-meeting asking for hints...
