'nuff said :-)

Well, if there's [non-German] beer...

Seriously, I really doubt I deserve a sponsorship, but if I could get a ticket in and maybe a pointer to a hotel room, I'd probably come for a laugh. It's merely a matter of hopping in a train and bringing enough reading stuff for the trip.

Just don't expect any amazing software contributions from me.

It's not just about software contributions, we'd also like to arrange some Community chats, interaction, etc. from the big hitters in the Community (and others).

Valid point, Mr. General! - and I wasn't saying that something should/should not be allowed. I was just spotting a trend.

Tell you what: if you and I both make it there, I'll have some made. You'll have to tell me sizes and preferred color. Deal?

I'll cop to vindictively thumbing Aisu's posts. I was getting tired of the screaming Debian and Android announcements, and he had a post with a very prominent "GIVE ME MONEY PLS" section which pushed me over the top. ;)

I might be singing a different tune if "No Thanks!" had ever been implemented here. ;)

It's amazing how many humble people we have here on ITT!

I would love to come, but have no money, and don't consider myself having contributed enough to the community (I have a couple plans for the future, but they're all still eggs). Moreover, people that I've seen here that have REALLY done ALLOT.... and they are saying that they don't deserve to go! If the people who have posted above me don't, then who does? :p

Personally, I'll take a chance and see if I can design a nice logo for maemo, if not, well there's always next year. (and I'm sure I won't be missed lol)

I hope you both do make it. Talk about the definition of "rock stars", although GA has more of a punk rock star attitude...

That -108 karma is hilarious! I want to go out now and give "thumbs down" to all of Thoughtfix's posts, just so it can be even more absurd!

EDIT: There's something weird in general with thoughtfix's profile.... -123 blogs?!

Well, it's weird how some people become rock stars... I wrote a couple of shell scripts (one of which I mostly borrowed from penguinbait) and made a .deb package out of it all, and suddenly I'm a "rock star"... Whatever.

I'm beginning to think the summit should include a "least worthy of being here" competition.

But nobody would think they were worthy to enter the competition.
