\n I’m on a train right now to Darmstadt, where BasysKom<\/a>
\n kindly hosts a meeting of the KDE e.V. Board of Directors. Adriaan is on the same train,
\n Cornelius and Klaas will be arriving tonight, Aaron as well, albeit a bit later. He’s coming
\n in from Oslo which saves him one jetlag.
\n
\n The main purpose of this meeting is — apart from the really administrative stuff such as
\n registering the board at the court — how we can speed up the process of getting an
\n employee to handle administrative work for the KDE e.V.. That should give us, the board
\n some more room for developing projects and looking into the future. Besides, it’s a waste
\n if really good developers (not me, mind you) are bogged down with administrative legwork for
\n a couple of hours every week.<\/p>\n

\n Last weekend, I’ve been to Haldern Open Air<\/a>, a smallish
\n (i.e. 6k people) festival in the west of Germany. I was with Kim and met a couple of my friends there
\n (friends from the time before I moved to the Netherlands). We spent the days barbequeing,
\n drinking beer, listening to music and relaxing. The weather just turned into summer when we
\n arrived there, perfect for camping. The festival is in a very rural area, we
\n literally camped between cows (and their leftovers), one of which got a new calf on Saturday morning.
\n I’ve also taken some time to make photos, most notably sunflowers.<\/p>\n

\n After returning from the Board meeting in Darmstadt, I’ll be at home for two nights and then
\n going on vacation for roughly a week. We’ll first get on a night train to Vienna, stay there
\n for a couple of days and then travel on to Bratislava. Vacation time is much needed, although
\n my travel schemes currently won’t make you believe that. After the vacation, I’ll be speaking
\n at FrOSCon<\/a> about KDE 4 and
\n CodeYard<\/a>. After that, I’m at LinuxConf Europe in Cambridge, and short thereafter on
\n another week of vacation in Portugal, mainly for the wine. End of September I’ll either travel
\n to Brussels for a EU FP6 Concertation Meeting or to Berlin for a week of hacking on SQO-OSS.<\/p>\n
