Right on! I will have a think about it a bit more, and try to discover
alternate ways of getting information (like changelogs etc) this
weekend. Then hopefully start the process next week.

As someone (sorry i can't remember who) also said i will start
monitoring kubuntu-devel.

similar meetings or events are publicized to the doc team, and then we
can see who will be around at the time.
