KDE Commit-Digest for 29th June 2008
====================================

   In this week's KDE Commit-Digest
[http://commit-digest.org/issues/2008-06-29/]: Some new wallpapers and
an Oxygen [http://oxygen-icons.org/] mouse cursor theme are imported
into KDE SVN for the KDE 4.1 release. The KDM login manager gets an
Oxygen facelift. Preliminary version of a basic web browser Plasmoid,
and a new "ScriptedImage" Plasma [http://plasma.kde.org/] applet.
Support for storing Amarok [http://amarok.kde.org/] 2.0 statistics in
NEPOMUK [http://nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org/], more work on the new
scripting interface, preliminary support for iPod's, and a
partially-working "random mode" restored to Amarok 2.0. The
"PopupDropper" interface element of Amarok 2.0 is imported into KDE SVN
for future development. Expansion of the D-Bus interface and stats
collection functionality of KTorrent [http://ktorrent.org/]. Alignment
support in KJots. The irritating bell sound is disabled by default in
Konsole [http://konsole.kde.org/]. Kexi [http://www.kexi-project.org/]
driver for the xBase family of databases is almost complete. KStars
[http://edu.kde.org/kstars/] receives a INDI Astrophysics driver, and
tweaks to its zooming user interface. Work on the "Leitner box" mode in
Parley [http://edu.kde.org/parley/]. The start of a "SnaKe" mode in the
newly-revitalised KTron. Work on a KIO-based network implementation in
the experimental WebKit [http://webkit.opendarwin.org/] integration into
KDE. An early implementation of storing Decibel
[http://decibel.kde.org/] contact data in Akonadi
[http://pim.kde.org/akonadi/]. Many KDE applications will now
automatically restart after a crash. Read the rest of the Digest here.
