  • work on KNotes [1]




work-in-progress:

  • About Kommander

<a href="http://code.google.com/soc/2007/kde/appinfo.html?csaid=93F720A476DF8E71">Matthias Wieser integrated</a> the cool <a href="http://dot.kde.org/1087424515/">Kommander tool</a>, which enables even very unskilled developers to quickly build GUI applications.

(they didn't make it, too much work. might become something later on?)

  • About MARBLE (SoC work)

much work, not the least on <a href="http://edu.kde.org/marble/">Marble</a>. It alone had three Summer of Code projects, with <a href="http://realate.blogspot.com/">Andrew Manson</a> working on <a href="http://code.google.com/soc/2007/kde/appinfo.html?csaid=58AE7448FBEEEAE0">GPS support</a>, <a href="http://carloslicea.blogspot.com/">Carlos Licea</a> on <a href="http://code.google.com/soc/2007/kde/appinfo.html?csaid=DCE4DBD4A0509DC7">2D projection</a> and <a href="http://cia.vc/stats/author/muradt/">Murad Tagirov</a> busy with <a href="http://code.google.com/soc/2007/kde/appinfo.html?csaid=D67FADC741D4F4C4">KML support</a>. (beta 3 stuff)

  • KVocTrain (from KDE-Edu) is renamed to Parley ( Parley (parli or parlei) is a discussion or conference, especially one between enemies over terms of truce or other matters. The root of the word parley is parlée, which is from the French verb parler, "to speak".)

Todo: - ask KDE-pim ppl about progress!!! - get plasma screencast?!?
