Well don't we all? You're talking about a major show and event here. There'd 
be something a bit wrong with you if you weren't nervous.

I think you're being rather hard on yourself here. At any kind of fair, trade 
show or event, with a lot of other stuff and talks going on, you're never 
going to get a Glastonbury type turnout. Think small steps, talk with the 
people who are there and make them understand what you are trying to do. A 
smaller turnout is good for that sort of thing.

Well, I'm getting to grips with KDE at the moment, and KDE CVS (and getting 
distcc to compile it by the time I get home from work!) and trying to get a 
feel for the whole of KDE. It's a pretty major project by any standards, and 
you have to comprehend the scale of it first. I need to devote more time to 
learning about it (I had more time when I was unemployed, but I couldn't buy 
the equipment I needed!), so I'll certainly be around this list for quite a 
while.

Let us know what leads you have and we can chip in with some ideas.

Cheers,

David
