Ok, so we will have them for the harvester days (Friday/saturday) :)

She sent it over already and I will change the short text line to
german, so we can use it in Berlin. I will also put it on the server
for our German users.
I think Anne will use it at Solutions Linux as well.

At mandrivauser.de we write such things down in the wiki, assign
people to it (all of this very early) and then those people have to
get their tasks done when the time comes. This way there will be
(almost) no "last minute tasks".

I see the whole matter from both sides as well. The problem is:
Discussions about strategies and plans and elsewhere are essential, no
doubt. But it is also possible to prolongue such discussions past a
first deadline if needed. The simple practical and visible things can
not be postponed because they are bound to fixed schedules (such as
events and release dates).
