imag1narynumber,
You're referring to the KDE booklet for handing out at booths right? Or at
least that is what you had contacted me to help with. This is a different
thread. We're talking about the 4.5 release day announcement here...the
booklet text you were working on should indeed be in a Google doc as we had
a ton of pictures embedded in that and never did port it over to etherpad
for that reason. So I don't think your work has not been wasted ;-)
thanks,
Justin
