Hi Alexandro,

What topics where there discussed? was there any specific issues to
tackle? Any resolution or result from the meeting?

well, the meeting is mainly thought for getting touch with the user base and with other projects. I've received various questions - beginning from "how does this and that work" up to "how will the Sun Oracle deal affect OOo": :-)

This is a great initiative and I wish I would have been able attend (one day it will happen ;). We have a lot to share with other projects, and when I was lead of the FR project, I always asked the other projects how they were doing for topics like l10n or members contribution. We have had discussion together with Gnome, Mozilla, Debian, Wikimedia, etc.
We have also shared several of our glossaries (KDE, Gnome, OOo).
My idea was also to apply for an l10n workshop last year at Fosdem, together with Debian (Christian Perrier) and Mozilla (Pascal Chevrel), but we lack of time to achieve it.

This is a great idea to meet with other communities, I hope that KDE
E.V. could participate too on the next meetings. I saw a similar
synergy during the GUAKADEMY (Guadec + Akademy) event in Canarias
earlier this month. There are common issues like the freedesktop
initiatives and other issues surrounding the Linux Desktop that are
common to the Gnome and the KDE camps.

I've invited all projects I know, but only three have been there (OOo, Mozilla, CAcert). Hopefully there will be more next time!

Do you have already plan something for the next time and the period of this next event?

Does the Mozilla group have an E.V. stablished in Germany, if they
don't, how are they currently structured.

IMHO not. They mainly work as association and foundation, and Carsten - the Mozilla guy I've set up the event - is a paid QA and marketing team meber from Mozilla.
Just for information, there is an interesting job proposal at the Mozilla Foundation ;-)
