On February the 1st I started my new job at Openismus. Most of the time I can work at home in Austria, but last Wednesday I got the chance to meet the Openismus team at their office in Berlin. Beside my first visit of Openismus, it was also my first visit of Berlin. I was very impressed by both of them: the team and Berlin.
I got the chance to do some trials with Qt on Maemo and to get familiar with what is working well and which parts still need a lot of investigations. All developers at Openismus are Gnome people, being the only one using KDE is not always easy ;-) But maybe it helped that Dolphin does not look so much different in comparison to Nautilus - I even got a KDE-sticker from an Openismus colleague.
I'm learning a lot of new stuff currently and will have less time during the next weeks for Dolphin. However this will change after mastering the usual time that is needed to get really productive. In the end I hope that I can apply the knowledge I gathered through KDE development with Dolphin for Openismus and also that Dolphin will benefit from the new things I learn at Openismus.

I love this city, and it is probably already the city with the largest number of KDE developers in the world. Consider moving ;)

Well now that Intel and Nokia are probably cutting most, if not all GTK / Gnome funding (Meego) your Qt skills will make you a popular person ;)
It was a pleasure to meet you.
I've to agree with Andreas. Berlin just rocks and you can't walk that far without running into another KDE developer. A lot of other FOSS-projects are rather strong here I would assume by the number of gsoc-shirts someone sees.
What sucks a bit is that Berlin is not in Brazil or another place with more friendly temperatures and ppl (city stress-factor?)
