If you were referring to the Google Docs I put up in my original mess= age in
this thread - yes. However I did put a nice message there saying "Plea= se don't
edit this document, use this Etherpad URL instead".

If you're talking about previous Google Docs in general, I have no idea= .

imag1narynumber,

You're referring to = the KDE booklet for handing out at booths right?=A0 Or at least that is wha= t you had contacted me to help with.=A0 This is a different thread.=A0 We&#= 39;re talking about the 4.5 release day announcement here...the booklet tex= t you were working on should indeed be in a Google doc as we had a ton of p= ictures embedded in that and never did port it over to etherpad for that re= ason. So I don't think your work has not been wasted ;-)

thanks,
Justin
