So it's really not about me, but mostly about the others running all the offline stuff. To name some it's Enrico, Jiri, Dmaphy and a bunch of others not regular posting on lists (to have just the Geany part of our booths)-- but some of the Germans from this list we are still missing at the boothes ;) However, I really think you are true. It's extremly important to do talks, being around with boothes etc. to show what we did and what might going to happen und so to make them use your/our crap or like to contribute. Also it is great to meet folks from distributions like packager and of course other usual suspects. Some of them are becoming kind of a familiy during time and you really wonder if they are not appearing. Also folks passing by are always happy to take stickers with them ;) So I'd really like to encourage you to run boothes all over the world at FLOSS-events. If you are not sure, just get in contact with us (as we're having some experince from last 6(?) years). Also we put a lot of stuff to the geany-talks repo incl. some posters and slides of talks I did last years. -> https://github.com/geany/talks Cheers, Frank signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel

Frank is being modest, I'm sure much of the peak in Europe is the effort that he and others spend at conferences and gatherings promoting Geany. :) The one side effect of the timezone spread is that it is often best to discuss things on ML or github not on IRC, to give people in all the different time zones a chance to respond. Otherwise you only get input from those who happen to be online at that moment.

From my personal experince there is a little peak of developers/contributors/user in Germany. Maybe because of the reasons it's where everything started or because I just think as I meet more Germans using Geany than maybe Japanese. However, as you can see from transaltions we're having users all over the world and that's a real great thing. Main developers are all around the globe -- again a little peak in Europe.
