KDE Commit-Digest for 29th July 2007
====================================

   In this week's KDE Commit-Digest
[http://commit-digest.org/issues/2007-07-29/]: Plasma
[http://plasma.kde.org/] continues to mature, with improvements to the
Twitter applet (and the creation of a complementary data engine), and
the adoption of a common visual style for Plasmoids, and the integration
of support for SuperKaramba [http://netdragon.sourceforge.net/] applets
through the creation of the SuperKaramba Plasmoid. More work on the
re-implementation of the Magnatune interface within the new music store
framework, and integration of the recent Plasma work for Amarok
[http://amarok.kde.org/] 2. More work on KBlocks, whilst KMines and
KLines become the first KDE applications to take advantage of the
recently-developed KPixmapCache
[http://commit-digest.org/issues/2007-07-22/#2]. More work on colour
mixing in Krita [http://www.koffice.org/krita/]. Import of Habitat, a
realistic interaction environment, to playground/edu. A return to work
on Cokoon, a framework for widget and window decoration creation.
RSIBreak [http://www.rsibreak.org/], KCall
[http://www.basyskom.de/index.pl/kcall], and the Kickoff
[http://en.opensuse.org/Kickoff] menu start to be ported to KDE 4. KDE
4.0 Beta 1 is tagged for release.
