Exactly and a rather personal opinion, if I may say so. While most of
you were having fun in the developer room, I was sitting alone behind
the booth most of the time. For me the two hours I spend in the dev
room, talking about cairo and discussing the future of GNUstep related
projects, was what made the trip to Brussels worthwhile.

This time I hope to meet Greg and to have some interesting discussions
on Friday evening and Saturday morning in the hotel lobby. Again this is
my personal reason for going to FOSDEM, yours may be completely different.
