Krita developers meeting?

The Dutch nlnet organisation is looking for research-y
projects to fund. The 
amounts are around the ten to twenty thousand euro mark. I
think a proposal 
to get all Krita developers together would be favourably
received. We are, 
after, all innovating. Especially in the past year we've
laid the groundwork 
for many very impressive innovations. It may be hard to
imagine when looking 
at Krita right now, but there are some great things just
round the corner for 
us .

I would propose something like this:

* Fund a meeting in Deventer in early April. Funding the
meeting would mean 
paying hotel and travel costs for participants and also
compensation for the 
holidays we all would have to take from work. 
* At that meeting, we discuss and work on Krita, but also
prepare a presence 
at the LGM where we can present our work.
* We could try to invite Pippin to have an openraster
component to the 
weekend's work
* Then we would apply for funding to bring us all to Poland
for the LGM.

Details need to be worked out, but it's really not unlikely
that we'd get the 
funding we need. 

I'd really like to have as many developers present as
possible -- even if you 
haven't committed anything to Krita for months because you
were busy with 
other things, then that's no reason not to come.

April 2007 was almost too hot in Deventer: we were working
on our new house 
and having lunch on a nice little terrace every day.
