Hi,
It would be a great opportunity to get members of all DEs (GNOME/KDE/Meego/LXDE/XFCE) and look at ways we can work together and learn from each other in an aspect that affects us all.
Yes, I think openSUSE is an excellent place to bring the desktops together. [...] Realistically I think we can mostly expect contributors at the conference, so I would make this the primary target group.

Agreed.
Thanks,
