Automatic Assignment of Tag Icons

[Kartik Ramesh]

Thank you for your kind words, Gilles.

I have already been writing about Project progress here
<https://kart1kx.wordpress.com/>. However it's not as detailed as Thanh's
blogposts that you shared.
I've also been asked by KDE to publish Status Reports on the
community.kde.org website, so I'll try to make my posts as detailed as
possible there.

Regards
Kartik.
