 On a related note: KDE might not be as stable and smooth as Gnome

 KDE.

 Er, could you change that to: KDE on Ubuntu might not be as stable and
 smooth as Gnome right now?  I've been using KDE 3.5 on Debian (with
 Compiz and all effects!) for donkey's years now, and I can't remember
 when I last had a stability or smoothness issue.  OTOH KDE4 is still a
 pretty buggy piece of software from all accounts -- for myself, I
 actively discourage people from using it.

Well it has nothing to do with Ubuntu. I'm using KDE 4.2 and the right
statement to make, as you did already, is that Latest version of KDE
is not as stable or smooth as the latest version of Gnome. But as I
said KDE 4 shows massive potential and it feels stable enough right
now to be on my development laptop.

 Done! The wiki page is at

 Please feel free to add or edit topics as you see fit.

Thanks for taking care of this. I will add to the Wiki
page over the weekend, and it would be nice if others
did the same, even if it is only to add their name as
interested participants. It would be good to see a
broader participation from the list.

As for the venue, I can arrange to always have Sarai
available as a standby venue on a certain day. Should
this be Fri. evening, or Sat.? Actually if it is of the
order of 5 people at a BoF, they can always drop in
unannounced.

Gora

Desperately off-topic now, but still:

In Amarok, click on the Playlists tab on the left.

Right-click on Radio Streams and select Add Radio Stream...

In the dialogue box that opens up, give the name as Schizoid PsyTrance 
and the URL as:  http://schizoid.in/schizoid-psy.pls

You can do the same for the Chill and Progressive channels.  The 
playlists are, respectively:

http://schizoid.in/schizoid-chill.pls
http://schizoid.in/schizoid-prog.pls

Presumably there is also a way to configure your browser to 
automagically invoke Amarok for playlist files (MIME type 
audio/x-scpls).

Sat works fine for me.

Looks like the common interests Gaurav and I share are Massive
Information Management, Web Development, and Embedded Systems (what
range!). What's the final topic then? Anyone who is planning to drop
in unannounced please at least make the effort of indicating your
topic preference on the list.
