We organised a joint conference between GNOME and KDE.
Most of those who could and wanted, managed to come and know us, explain their story.
We exposed ourselves as a unified front to 3rd party providers as well as possible sponsors.

We reiterate, we are here to stay
We continue the conversation with the 3rd parties, we find ways to get them more involved.
