Well, I guess I'll bump some of the great responses to the branding strategy with this, but I thought it was worth blogging a little.
First, I'd like to thank the KDE marketing and promotion team for making this all actually come together. We're still working on things, like updating websites (hopefully done by the time 4.4 is out, at least that's the plan). We can use some help though, if you're interested in contributing to KDE, by updating various pieces of documentation to use the new terminology. The wikis are a good place to start (community.kde.org, userbase.kde.org, techbase.kde.org). Just follow the outline from the dot and start fixing sentences.
Second topic: Camp KDE. We're trying to get as many people at this event as we can, and our registration numbers are growing. However, we're also running a contest that includes a free flight to the event. Sadly, unless they are disappearing into the aether, we're receiving very few submissions. On the converse, a lot of people have been registering for the event recently. Yay!
Lastly: Not KDE related, except in the sense that I'm a dot editor and my experiences with drupal there led me to use drupal for a new project: I've been running a new website on behalf of the Centre of Planetary Science and Exploration (CPSX) called the CPSX Digest. It is essentially styled after my experiences working on the dot, but instead of amalgamating KDE news, we're amalgamating Planetary Science news. Think of it as space.com less their exclusive content and annoying ads, but written by people involved in the field of planetary science at CPSX. I would love it if folks here could help me spread the word over the interblags. Getting people to find a new site like this is hard.
KDE is dead! Long live KDE!
