I agree with Agustin that it would be good to wait for a bit while we
sort out a good approach for the commercial side of KDE. We discussed
this at the BoF. Agustin gave a brief presentation and Frank
Karlitschek spoke about the need to be more aggressive on this front.
I agreed to work with Agustin on his proposed program.

I've only just gotten back into the swing of things after being gone
for several weeks. But I would like to be part of making something
happen on the commercial front.
