I basically see two important target groups:

- the community - This target group is very important as most events are 
visited by the community (which is a pity for exhibitors as they rather try 
to cater for the big masses).
A community flyer should show why taking part in KDE / KOffice is great fun 
and why people should consider to join the team. It's not so much about 
feature-set but about making being part of KOffice sound like fun (from the 
social aspect as well as the developer tools).

- people and companies that think about using an office suite on Linux / 
crossplattform and would like to know how KOffice compares to MS Office and 
OpenOffice
