I guess all of us who are online can have their IRC clients open until evening, so we can have a wide ranged discussion. BTW, we will also log the session and make it available afterwards for review.

Re: [CFP] own KSF vs. ASF project
just in advance. The call is for all individuals who are involved actively in the project. They don't have to claim cvs write access for having the participation done ;) We want to have a wide consensus here, so if you have been or are currently actively moving the project, please do join the discussion!
