Of course everyone involved in free […] KDE’s yearly conference Akademy is currently on. It’s great to see so many familiar and new faces.

At the same time I’ll be happy to talk about the Qt Project. And I’m looking forward to meeting so many old and new friends. […] Quite often the question comes up how to build a KDE application.
