KDE Commit-Digest for 8th June 2008
===================================

   In this week's KDE Commit-Digest
[http://commit-digest.org/issues/2008-06-08/]: Global keyboard shortcuts
for applets, and an Amarok [http://amarok.kde.org/] and "python
expression" runner in Plasma [http://plasma.kde.org/]. A Java test
applet and various interaction improvements in Plasma. Simple network
and CPU monitors in the system-monitor Plasmoid. Initial import of
PeachyDock, a Plasma-based alternative panel. The Oxygen
[http://oxygen-icons.org/] window decoration gets the "on-all-desktops"
button. Continued development toward Amarok 2.0. KDevelop
[http://www.kdevelop.org/] gets a new context browser, and various other
improvements. Initial work on SVG theming in Parley
[http://edu.kde.org/parley/] and Step
[http://stepcore.sourceforge.net/]. Support for OpenGL rendering in
Palapeli. Enhancements for KDiamond 4.2. Nonogram switches to its own
package format, with the import of a collection of game files in this
format. Planned developments start to materialise in KColorEdit.
Map-based searches in Digikam [http://www.digikam.org/]. Digikam-relates
libraries move to kdegraphics for KDE 4.1. Enhanced printing support
(selections, zooming) in KSpread [http://www.koffice.org/kspread/].
KThumb, a simple command-line utility for managing freedesktop.org
thumbnails. Optimisations in Kate [http://kate-editor.org/], Dolphin
[http://enzosworld.gmxhome.de/], and kjs-frostbyte. Ruby bindings for
various KDE facilities (QtWebKit, NEPOMUK
[http://nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org/], etc). Decibel strips some of its
KDE dependencies, and moves to kdesupport. KDiskManager is removed to
make way for a replacement. Mailody [http://www.mailody.net/] moves to
kdeextragear. KPilot [http://pim.kde.org/components/kpilot.php],
KMobileTools [http://www.kmobiletools.org/], and the Kontact
