yes, 

I think these reports should be archived at promo.kde.org or events.kde.org. 
Anyone interested in helping me with this? I'm planning to make a first 
edition on 15th february (after FOSDEM) Stil this doesn't solve the issue of 
not having KDE-presence in America on a short notice.

I think the whole promo-thing needs an overhaul ...
