Here I am sitting in super-nice small hotel in the center of Munich, taking a short rest after the DevDays before flying back to Tallinn.

It has been an insane two days, packed with meeting new people from all over the Earth and consuming knowledge Trolls have to offer. And they got quite a lot.

I've met in person a lot of Trolls and all I can say they are amazing people. It was extreme pleasure to see them on stage, talking with a real passion about the things they know and love - Qt, Qtopia and life in general.

There is tremendous amount of interest in Qt from a lot of developers from all areas - from microcomputers to space, from medicine to construction, from seismic research to business solutions. In my estimation there was about 500 people writing or maintaining Qt programs for a living. Somebody said there are not too many Qt applications out there. Well, they didn't bother to look. Maybe a TMR scanner in a medical facility nearby you runs Qt, how do you know?

Trolltech's commitment to developing Qt is so big, that I'm completely smashed and totally happy for choosing Qt for working on Skype for Linux. And more interesting things are only ahead.

I've also met my outstanding goal - to finally see some KDE developers I've known for long on the IRC but never managed to talk to in person. You guys are absolutely awesome.
While roaming around with a bottle of wine, I stumbled into Matthias Kretz sitting doing some Phonon debugging, so we sat together and shaped an API for VOIP and real-time audio applications in Phonon. With Torsten Rahn talked a bit about Marble and Google. This kind of meetings is really facilitating and I hope to have more chances to see them all more frequently in the near future.

My special "thank you" for inspiration to Aaron Seigo, the Man behind, above, below and in front of KDE. I even went to his talk two times in a row. Good job and have more working examples at hand!
