KDE PIM/Meetings
Get together, and get hacking! One of the fun ways to improve the KDE PIM codebase is to get together for a hackfest. Since most -- but by no means all -- of the KDE PIM developers are in Western Europe, getting together isn't all that hard to do. KDE PIM has a great tradition of focused developer meetings. It started at Osnabrück in 2003 and has grown into having several meetings a year.
