I wouldn't dream of suggesting something like this :), but results of posting to a public list instead of contacting privately are predictable due to a number of horrible precedents like [1]. Therefore my dark sarcasm. To the best of my knowledge avox already participated at aKademy some years ago. Now, I'm not a team member, so my opinion doesn't really count, but I don't see why one of developers couldn't attend aKademy. Even if you don't end up optionally using some KDE stuff, you are doomed to meet some Qt developers in person there, and I bet that you have a whole lot of questions and suggestions. Personally I'd rather see some CMS guys there to get the blasted color management module finished and merged to mainstream KDE (yes, I'm a happy GNOME Color Management user, but so what?).
