Any resolution or result from the meeting? 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. One of the great things that were shown and discussed during the event that concern OpenOffice.org where the following: * Social Desktop (social openoffice.org) * Qt small footprint vs VCL (similar proposal to XUL a few years back) * Collabora's Freedesktop proposal Farsight attach to OOo's collaboration suite These proposals can make OOo much greater than it is and can push the Linux Desktop to a competitive advantage over the rest of the market. I wonder if it's possible to have some of the points that were generated in Germany if that was the case. > The first run was in Munich yesterday evening, supported by the nonprofit > OpenOffice.org Deutschland e.V.
