Anyone else ? I am putting together a kPhotoalbum circle so that we can have
a little video conference for the upcoming weekend (currently
suggested Saturday, but
if Sunday is better, then that).

Also, Andreas Neustifter will put together a Kphotoalbum page on Google+ that we
then can use to organize hangouts and new version announcements with that.
