Yes, I hope too.

This is also why I am here. I probably can't help very much to 
core-development but I hope I will help with kde mindshare developments.

I think there is a great potential for direct kde promotion to LUGs and 
other local groups. 

Sounds direct, but do you think you could make a presentation of kde to 
them, like in a conference ? We already have some material with the 
kpresenter presentations of David. All you need to add is voice comments 
for the understanding of the kde2 architecture.

I had great time assisting at many project presentations at the OSDEM and I 
think people (and developers) are usually very interrested by this kind of 
things, especially if you show them how easy it is to take advantage of all 
the technologies. And if it is in their native language, it is the top.

So why not organise a meeting in your LUG where you could present Kde.

I'm aware that what I am suggesting takes quite a lot of time to set-up, 
but I also know it is very fun and it helps a lot.

	regards,

	Philippe
