We are :-) By which I mean people who consider themselves part of promo and 
might be interested in attending.

So, this is how it works:
- We find out who we are and where we live (that's why it is really important 
that you fill in the wiki page)
- Based on that, we can make some judgements about the better places to try 
and host it - are we mostly in Europe, US, elsewhere
- We then need to find a venue for the meeting, ideally free which needs some 
desks, chairs and internet access - this might be a university or sympathetic 
company that can lend us some space over a weekend. If you have any ideas 
please note them in the wiki
- We then need to finalise the venue and date, who is available to come, find 
accommodation and apply to KDE e.V. for travel and accommodation funding 
(probably some combination of Justin, Sandro, Pradeepto, me and someone local 
to the venue can do that)
- KDE e.V. will have to consider whether our meeting is a good use of funds. 
There is money there to be spent, but it is not unlimited and has to be 
justified - hence we look for a venue that has lowest costs for travel etc

In practice, we won't get everyone there because we won't have everyone free 
at the same time and maybe not enough money too. However, indicating when you 
are free and where you live is a good way to raise the chance that it is held 
at a convenient time and somewhere that it isn't too expensive to get you to

If you think you might know somewhere that could host the meeting, post it in 
the wiki page or, if it's confidential, let me and Justin know.

Cheers,
Stu
