  • Who is coming?

  • What are you doing?

 - Discussion about hosting future Camp KDE event in Toronto region
 - General hysteria: the group is dominated by Ubuntu users who have no

idea how cool KDE really is - after being inspired by the amazing power we wield over our computers, they will begin to worship us. Soon they will be asking us to rewrite the driver stack, and fix their grandmother's pacemakers, which we can do via telekinesis because we are just that awesome. Later, we might make some mom jokes. 

 - Wrap up with some beer/pizza/etc.
