KDE.org.pl Website Celebrates First Birthday
============================================

   It has been a year since launching our KDE.org.pl [http://kde.org.pl]
site, which has an aspiration to be a real "gate to the KDE's world" in
Poland.  During the last months, our site received 220 pages and
articles, most of them are translations of news, articles and interviews
from dot.kde.org and kde.org. We have got 480 photos, artworks and
screenshots. In order to reach more people intrested in KDE, our goal is
to simplify the language and keep the quality.

     We have accompanied Polish KDE users by providing translations of
The Road to KDE 4, and now we're keeping on with news on KDE 4. The
central items on the agenda are topics like Amarok, KOffice, Education,
Akademy or interviews with KDE developers.



                        HISTORY AND CONTRIBUTORS

     The works, based on the flexible Mediawiki technology, were started
a long time before the launching - in early 2007. In February, we have
started translations and categorising of the knowledge, sometimes
exceeding the contents of English pages.

     Over the past months, more people have been joining the Polish KDE
Team. Words of appreciation for hard and consequent job especially goes
to those who have belonged to the team from the beginning: Pawe&#322;
Szubert (pbm, unquestioned record in number of translations), Bartosz
Koz&#322;owski (joker) and &#321;ukasz Strzpek. Content and
language-related corrections are maintained by Jaros&#322;aw Staniek,
who has also customised the KDE Oxygen Mediawiki style for the web site.

     As a part of the evolution of the web site, forum.kde.org.pl
[http://forum.kde.org.pl] launched in July 2007 in cooperation with
JakiLinux.org (polishlinux.org [http://polishlinux.org]) portal, and
blog.kde.org.pl [http://blog.kde.org.pl] in November 2007. The latter
has been designed in similar style to kdedevelopers.org
[http://kdedevelopers.org/] blog, thanks to Bartosz Koz&#322;owski
(joker). Hosting for the kde.org.pl web site and our blog is provided by
OpenOffice Software, LLC.
