Linuxland is pretty much dead afaik. The people behind nedlinux 
(www.nedlinux.nl) were behind this commercial idea. 

BTW Josef .... you know some people here in the Netherlands ?

Well, I will be on that event anyway and will do my kde-promo thing. But I 
very much limited for what I'm allowed to do. For example: I got a little 
konqi with me and everyone was asking the price of this konqi. Also selling 
cd's or pins would generate some income during such a large event. 

In the past people were really asking for all kind of Linux-merchandise, from 
mousepads to stuffed mascottes .. pinguin or konqi.

We will see what happens ... I will mail the NLLGG again soon when their 
answer to my mail is taking too long.
