I'm not sure I'm "qualified" to attend a promo sprint but I'd like the promo team to consider other platforms. Twofold: - Users. So far KDE has been used mainly by Linux users. It's also widely adopted in the BSD desktop world, as small as it be. But what about Mac and Windows? It's absolutely marginal there, which leads me to... - Developers. If we can get even a small percentage of Windows and Mac users, it may bring a good number of developers to KDE. With my kde-windows hat on, I must say we badly need more developers, especially packagers (in particular, people who maintain third-party dependencies). Those are exactly the reasons I started the "Platforms" series in BehindKDE.
