KDE Commit-Digest for 24th February 2008
========================================

   In this week's KDE Commit-Digest
[http://commit-digest.org/issues/2008-02-24/]: More work on runners,
bindings into WebKit, and the beginnings of better composite manager
support in Plasma [http://plasma.kde.org/], with support for multiple
feed sources in the RSS Plasmoid. The addition of a "BBall", "Show
Desktop", "KMLDonkey", and "IM Presence" (using Decibel
[http://decibel.kde.org/]) Plasma applets. An alternative alt+tab window
switcher (similar to Compiz Fusion's "Cover Switch" effect).
SuperKaramba [http://netdragon.sourceforge.net/] gets support for Qt 4.4
"widgets-on-canvas". A long-overdue "major" rewrite of KCron is
undertaken. Undo support in the KShortcutsEditor dialog. New plugins in
Digikam [http://www.digikam.org/] and Krita
[http://www.koffice.org/krita/]. Various improvements in KTorrent
[http://ktorrent.org/] and Amarok [http://amarok.kde.org/] 2.0.
Interface work and MusicBrainz integration in KsCD (student project).
Lots of work on page transition effects in KPresenter
[http://koffice.kde.org/kpresenter/]. The start of work on integrating
online reader support into Akregator
[http://akregator.sourceforge.net/]. Kubrick, a Rubik's Cube game, is
imported into playground/games. KDiamond moves from playground/games to
kdereview, Kollision from kdereview to kdegames for KDE 4.1. kdebase
(trunk, KDE 4.1) now requires Qt 4.4. Akonalendar (a small app to
demonstrate Akonadi [http://pim.kde.org/akonadi/] KCal models), and the
Quasar graphics library are imported into KDE SVN. Read the rest of the
Digest here [http://commit-digest.org/issues/2008-02-24/].
