Waldo Bastian Wins aKademy Competition
======================================

   We have a winner! Our recent competition
[http://dot.kde.org/1093543464/] turned out to be more than possible for
Waldo Bastian, who picked up his prize this morning from Phil Rodrigues.
Based upon his recent tutorial
[http://conference2004.kde.org/tut-kiosk.php] and presentation
[http://conference2004.kde.org/cfp-userconf/waldo.bastian-kde.kiosk.mode.php],
the entry covers KDE's KIOSK framework and administration tools, and
will add an entirely new section on introducing administation to the
User Guide.

     Waldo, an employee of SuSE and veteran KDE hacker, chose Hackers
and Painters [http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/hackpaint/index.html] by
Paul Graham. In the photograph he is receiving the prize from Phil.

     Lauri Watts and Phil (from the documentation team) were pleased
with the entries, and look forward to future submissions. To improve the
quality of the documentation, the KDE Project is keen to receive full
entries or even small corrections or amendments from users, to avoid
making it too difficult for non-developers to understand. If you'd like
to contribute a section of the User Guide, and get your fifteen minutes
of KDE fame, please e-mail: kde-doc-english at kde.org
[kde-doc-english at kde.org]

     We may run more competitions in the future, open to all, with books
and t-shirts as prizes, to encourage more people to submit
documentation, artwork and other forms of contribution. Look out for
announcements on the dot!
