optimism

Sounds like a great list. I can't help thinking that you are being over optimistic though by using "will" all the time. Is there a rundown anywhere of how many SOC projects from last year bore fruit?

If you consider that 40 people for four months is like Google sponsoring 13 KDE developers for a year, and that's a huge contribution from Google...

A few of the SoC projects from last summer were not completed but have turned into longer term projects and are still ongoing, growing far beyond the initial specifications as well as drawing developers into KDE and opensource in general. If this happens in even one SoC project, then the world is a better place, imho, and I'd happily take this result :)
