Bas,

It is nice to see your "shout-out" on the list. The traffice at this list 
varies indeed a lot. Last time it sprung to life was about attending events 
in North-America I think.

Anyway, 1,5 year ago I started to help the dutch KDE translation team. And I 
was asking Rinse de Vries <rinse@kde.nl> why KDE was not represented at 
events like LinuxExpo A'dam and other events. Time and money seemed to be the 
biggest problem (short version). 

Beside doing dutch KDE translations I started this little kde promo initiative 
by attending events like linux@work, HCC-dagen, NLLGG-bijeenkomsten but also 
visiting some (l)ugs like L4L and Wireless Leiden.

I also started to buy some merchandise which I could sell during 
events(kde-pins, shirts, polo shirts, cd's) Also I have some nice contacts 
with HUB(uitgeverij), NLLGG,C'T, J.Baten(i2rs), nedlinux and munnikes.nl.

I would really want to invite you to help kde-nl, we could use some people to 
get some more stuff done for kde-promo in The Netherlands. 

Please contact me if you are interested,

Fabrice
