If I were living in Germany, I would love to step up for next C= eBIT fairs.  Fortunately I am not, but Bart (Steccino) and me are prob= ably willing to help on next years fair.

About the Business-oriented= folders...  I see an opportunity to do a brainstorming about this on = Akademy2008 (BOF-session), though I know that there already is a folder, it= is never bad to think big(ger).  I suggest I'll try to organise a= BOF on this issues (promo in general) and we should all search for the bes= t solutions.

Also a great Idea would be kind of a road-book, in which you can find a= ll necessary information on who to contact, merchandising prices, etcetera = to put in the Booth box.  I will start working on this asap (though pr= obably not very soon, since I also have Akademy...)

Well actually I hadn't planned to coordinate CeBIT fairs this yea= r anymore.
I'd highly appreciate it if someone else would step up next year to tak= e care
of the coordination. That being said I'm very well aware that this woul= d
require guidance from me, so if you feel like jumping in next year feel fre= e
to speak up.

Yes, and once people realize or know that people spend their spare ti= me they
ask "Why are you here at all? - What does it give for KDE?" :-)

I hope that once the KDE e.V. will have an office in Frankfurt these = things
will get better organised.

While I think I had things "remotely" under control until Friday = I'd like to
apologize for dropping the ball until Sunday morning. Therefore I feel bad<= br> that you guy had to improvise a bit in the end (especially wrt shipment of<= br> the boothbox). On the other hand improvisation is a bit of a necessary evil=
on such events.
