I have to live in german so I'm pretty much used to the nice sounding 
guttural language :)

My point was more in not overwhelming the users right at the beginning 
with a not so useful message. it was mora a matter of timing, basically 
the second news I see on QGIS is relevant only to a niche population. If 
any other software would do that my instinctive reaction would be to 
disable the whole thing to protect me from an information overflow.

obviously not, it's a great event that I'm looking forward to join

Why should that be irritating? We have to make QGIS market share larger 
at the cost of other corporation and not fight over the current QGIS 
users, so any public event around QGIS ecosystem is music to my ears :)

Totally agree with you, was just scared that we would in fact achieve 
the opposite by scaring off people.

Ciao
