we just got the note that they have so many project requests at FOSDEM 2008 so that they had to decide between them. And, the decision is that we do not get a stand/devroom this time. That's a real pity ... is FOSDEM growing too big ? :-) If they only allow space for the current big projects

Well, as for me, I certainly do plan to do my part by coding more software for development and every day use. I will continue PM development (and finally rename it to something sensible). And in the mean time - please feel free to publish the following in the GNUstep success stories: NetMage
