I'm happy to finally announce the first ever KDE Baden-Wuerttemberg Sprint this September 3rd to 5th in Stuttgart, Germany.
Why?
The idea was born at this year's Akademy (thanks mzanetti
). Up to this point I was quite unaware how numerous KDE contributors in south-west Germany actually were - actually not that astonishing given I don't peek out of my natural habitat all that often. What actually astonished me though was that there were a whole lot of long-term contributors from the area who didn't really know each other either. Time to change that, isn't it?
What?
Talking to other contributors is not just a matter of socializing though. During the times I've spent with other people of KDE, conversations have not only been warm and pleasant but also a great source for inspiration and motivation. To make full use of that we'll also have short lightning talks, introducing our projects, and hack together.
Who, where, ...?
Every contributor to KDE either living in the area or willing to make the journey to Stuttgart is invited to take part. I've put most of the information on a page in our community wiki: http://bit.ly/b8j6QQ. To take part, just register by putting your name on that page.
If you're interested in taking part or have further questions, feel free to contact me any way you can find (fastest are identi.ca or lemma on IRC).
