Can I contact you on that .. because if it would be possible that maybe I give 
the LUG-people a shout overhere... I noticed from the last interview that 
Waldo and you are in the Low Lands (Lage Landen). All of this of course when 
your time permits of course ...

That's nice ... well I'm looking still for people now who will assist me on 
this. So I put your name on my list ?

Yes, rigth now maybe Thomas (I contacted him) could check if it is possible to 
make some flyers. I saw those nice flyers via the link in KDE-PROMO FAQ from 
Torsten Rahn in this mailinglist.  So this be localized into dutch or should 
we print both languages (dutch=20%- english=80%)

Could anyone pass me an e-mailadres from our dutch-speaking belgian KDE 
promotors :-) maybe Kristoff ? Is he not french-speaking ? One way to find 
out I guess ....

Yes I know that url ... and the logos looks nice. I heart from Rinse you did 
some designing on promo-material ... But some of that art-work are imho a bit 
outdated (in accordance to the new kde3.0). Is there more material (maybe on 
your harddisk? :-P .. which can be used for printing stuff like shirts ?) I 
like for example the burning kde-logo 
<http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=72> from frank 
<frank@kde-look.org>  I wrote him an e-mail but I doubt if I got the correct 
e-mailadres ...

What do you think of this matter of having some new stylish clipart (already 
avaible through kde-look.org ) on http://www.kde.org/clipart.html ? 


okay Tink ... thank you very much for your answer ... let me know if you got 
any nice ideas or know any Dutch and Flemish people who are interested in 
doing some dutch kde-promo.

[OT]
KDE 3.0 rocks ... it is fast as hell ... thanks to all kde-people out there 
for making this such a nice desktop to use
[/OT]

grtz'

Fab
