 Note: The following covers features and material that will be available in 4.2, which will not be released until January 2009.
No X11 desktop shell can be considered complete unless it has "eyes", right? Behold, new eyes plasmoid in all it's scalable SVG greatness!
Now that this is in kdeplasma-addons, our work here is obviously done. =P
On a more serious note, the Plasma team is making great progress these days. I particularly ike the new Plasma style notifications that are part of the new system tray:
If you have more than one notification, they stack up on top of each other. As you can see they have cute curved edges, even without composite, and they are themable. We'll be adding the UI server jobs there as well. And yes, those are Extenders! =)
The new system tray supports icon hiding, embedded Plasmoids and more. Fun! The panel configuration bar is looking really slick, and when the panel configuration is shown ...read more...

| Наряду с Индией и Бразилией Россия была названа страной с самыми высоким темпами внедрения СПО в бюджетные организации. Этот рейтинг был оглашен на международном видеосеминаре по открытым информационным и коммуникационным технологиям (International Open ICT Summit), который начался 20 октября при поддержке Всемирного банка и Goscon (Government Open Source Conference). Перед началом видеосеминара организаторы распространили несколько вопросов по теме «СПО и государство», ответы на которые они хотели бы получить в результате мероприятия. По словам Алексея Смирнова, практически все их можно найти в «Концепции по развитию СПО в России», которая была принята коллегией Мининформсвязи в декабре 2007 г.

My tata wimax connection works well most of the time but it has a supremely annoying feature that to get connected, one is redirected to login in their login site (pretty much how the internet connection works in many hotels). If you are idle for sometime, it will auto logoff. Since my internet connection is not so fast, I usually download over the night and open a keepalive window.
This worked well up until a couple of months back. Now they seem to have decided to disconnect users at random times regardless of internet activity. Not to be deterred by the challenge, I started thinking of how to work around this. The login screen looks like this:
I needed something that keeps logging me in automatically. Qt/WebKit was the obvious choice. It would have been trivial had the post URL of the above form not been dynamic (i.e it has a magic session number in the ...read more...

I admire Aaron's dedication to the cause in suggesting a regular video cast about KDE technology. That's like teaching regular classes. I was a TA for many years, it's not something to be undertaken lightly. Tomorrow I'm filling in for a guest class in one of the software engineering classes in Nijmegen; my topic is licensing issues and compliance. I wouldn't want to do that regularly as a hobby, no sirree.
It strikes me that we (as a project and as an e.V.) have been investing more time and effort into schooling and teaching people how to be part of the community, how to contribute and how to make the most of the software that the KDE project produces. You (in the abstract) need to invest in order to create the contributors of tomorrow; it's easy to forget sometimes when you can fix bug X in less time than it takes to explain to someone how to fix bug X themselves. Doing the latter repays itself many times over in the long run.

| Hi Planet KDE! You might already know me from 2006 or 2007, but currently I'm gone from KDE because of other commitments. So technically you shouldn't hear from me right now; however, my buddy klausi drove me to it. Surprising high amounts of KDE coders use non-KDE technology like vi or emacs to hack on KDE, and mostly they've got good reasons to do so. The only option to get those people use Kate or KDevelop is to continually improve those. The respective developer teams are doing awesome work in that regard, while my contribution for today is just a small KTextEditor plugin. (Which means you can use it in Kate, KDevelop or whatever KatePart-based editors exist out there.) The plugin is called AutoBrace and, frankly, an uninspired clone of the best feature that you'll find in Eclipse (apart from the compile-as-you-go automatism and sheer infinite amounts of complexity). Right, it's the automatic insertion of a closing brace ("}") after you ended a ...read more...

This is a short rant about how portable code shouldn't look like:
else if (not defaultServerList.contains(server))
Those C99 boolean operator keywords(not, or, and) break here on windows and are not worth the annoyance.
I already had discussions about that once and I am not keen on doing that again. Thus I beg you to use the standardized operators !,||,&& from now on, so that I will never have to complain about that again.
I will add another post about the second biggest annoyance (export macros) soon, but this requires a longer post.

| Сегодня, 20 октября, Qt Software (ранее известная как Trolltech) анонсировала доступность первого Technology Preview библиотеки Qt для платформы Symbian S60, активно продвигаемой компанией Nokia. Доступны коммерческая и свободная (GPLv2 или v3) версии библиотеки, не отличающиеся ничем, кроме текста лицензии. На данный момент поддерживается только третья редакция S60 FP1 и выше. Для демонстрации возможностей библиотеки разработчики предпочитают использовать Nokia N95. Первую законченную версию Qt для платформы S60 обещают выпустить во втором квартале 2009 года.

| April this year we started a new project here in Oslo called “Qt for S60″ and I’ve been wanting to blog about it ever since. Now I finally can! Basically we’re porting Qt to yet another platform: S60, which roughly gives us around 80 million new devices Qt can run on. Our vision of Qt Everywhere is becoming more and more of a reality. And it feels good. Let’s get to the important stuff. Click here to: About the tech-preview and the demos The Qt for S60 pre-release packages comes in two license flavours, either download the opensource (GPL2 or GPL3) package or the preview-commercial package. Content wise there is no real difference between them. However, the opensource package contains pre-compiled binaries which the preview commercial package does not. The reason ...read more...

As I write this, over 470 people have taken the time to fill out the poll asking if I should do a KDE videocast and the affirmatives were overwhelming.
A significant percentage, nearly 1 in 5, are interested in development tutorials and information related to development. I didn't expect quite that big a percentage, to be honest, but that's great news.
A few were interested in the business aspects of things, but the majority are mostly interested in either anything and everything or else information of interest to the end user.
So I've decided that I will do a weekly show. Given the responses and some further thinking about it all, I've been working on a draft schedule that I could mold each show around:
- Intro: 2 minutes of saying "Hi" and what the topics are for the show
- "The Week in Review": 3 minutes covering quickie like release related updates, progress stats and news headlines from places such as theDot
- "The Headline": 10 minutes on a topic I find interesting in ...read more...

| Проект OpenInkpot сообщает о релизе свободной прошивки 0.1, пригодной для пользователей. Версия 0.1 означает, что ещё многое предстоит сделать, но прошивка уже предоставляет всё необходимое для чтения электронных книг. Поддерживаемые устройства: Hanlin V3 и V3ext (эти устройства выпускаются под другими брендами: lBook, DigiBook, Walkbook, BEBOOK, Papyre). Поддерживаемые форматы файлов (во всех форматах не поддерживаются таблицы): (FB2, HTML, CHM, Plucker, zTxt, TCR, RTF, OEB, OpenReader, Mobipocket (без DRM, но с поддержкой huff/cdic-сжатия), TXT. Поддерживается чтение файлов в архивах tar, zip, gzip и bz2. Новость взята здесь: http://www.the-ebook.org/rus/?p=547 P.S. Судя по обсуждению этого релиза на форуме ( http://www.the-ebook.org/forum/viewto... ) дистрибутив уже вполне пригоден для использования, а это не может не радовать. Следует заметить, что в настоящее время во многих (всех?) устройствах на базе e-ink используется модифицированное ядро linux, при этом производители грубо нарушают лицензию GPL обязывающую их предоставлять модифицированные исходники используемые в распространяемом ими устройстве.

| So, the eagle-eyed of you may have noticed something happen to my T61 as I was taking screenshots of the LTSP setup for LEL.... That's right! I have finally switched from my beloved KDE 3.5 to KDE 4.1. And I'm very happy about it indeed. For a long time I was hearing all these tales of "KDE 4 is not ready for user type X. However, we recommend it for user types Y and Z" type stories. So, despite me spending lots of time studying the code, compiling the code and generally learning more about the guts of KDE, I wasn't actually using it. It finally clicked that I should make the switch when I got the LTSP going. [If you want to skip these thoughts and get to the point, feel free to skip to the section headed "The Point"] So, here's the stuff I really like...

Some months ago when the #kwin Channel was created I decided to stop by and ask the wonderful people there about some weird ideas I had about shadows and fixing the bad windec corners on Oxygen. Luckily Lucas Murray had the patience to listen to me and actually something was started. Basically we can now provide custom shadows for kwin and that includes active shadow and inactive shadow. The big bonus we got was that we can now ship shadows that include our corners without the aliasing problems. Casper Boemann endured me all weekend long moaning about pixels so we could get this results... I Must say I'm extremely happy with the results it seemed like something impossible to get just a a few months ago. On another front we managed to get rid of the not so pretty scrollbars we had thanks to the ...read more...
