Congratulations to everyone! KDE 4.2 is amazing achievement! (I'm saying it as a user)<br><br>Regarding plans for 4.3. I just wanted to try to refresh the idea of Virtual Folders that were first crafted as a concept somewhere during 2004 KDE4 brainstorming.<br>
<br>I believe we have all foundations right now needed to work on this: FolderView, decibel for network, nepomuk for semanthics... The idea was to make it possible to craft a virtual view of files made by specific filters.<br>
<br>Basic of them are like: get me documents edited during last two weeks. (imagine this on the working activity) or, "recently uploaded pictures" or "documents with tag 'school' from last 6 months" etc.<br>
<br>but the amazing possibilities are when you connect it into your ad-hoc home network and think of a FloderView displaying "shared" items. So when you're in work, or home you could get a kind of Dropbox.com like solution but without an external app. Such folderview could appear only when my laptop is in given envirionment (work, home) and would allow me to drag&drop files that would be accessible from other machines around. Or by other co-workers from my work group. This way we could create a virtual team made of several people among those in the office and easily echange files between us and later possibly have a small chat window (Kopete + Bonjour).<br>
<br>Such virtual folders have a great potential and I'd love to help with those (but my lack of experience with KDe programming makes me much better advocate than developer ;)), but I'm not sure if that sounds like a material for 4.3 or maybe 4.4 (give nepomuk/decibel more time?)<br>
<br>Just wanted to drop some food for thoughts :)<br>Zbigniew Braniecki<br>
