Friedrich Kossebau, coordinator of the kdeutils module, posts a call for more application maintainers:
|
The module kdeutils is currently undergoing a cleanup. Which in the process opens opportunities for you to take over some responsibility for a part of KDE and enhance it even more!
The programs listed below are working, thus are going to be part of KDE 4.1, but are without a real maintainer. They got ported by our main v3 to v4 porters, but then no-one really sees them as their baby, cares for them, and has a master plan how to make them even better - for KDE 4.1 you would be limited to make only existing features shiny, given that the soft feature freeze set in several days ago. Yet this makes you familiar with the code base, so for KDE 4.2 you can go crazy. The working applications requiring new maintainers are:
- KDESSH - a front end to SSH
- KFloppy - format a floppy disks with this program
- KTimer - execute programs after some time
The programs listed next are not working or not compilable and also without any maintainer/developer. They were partially ported to KDE4, but nobody has really cared for them, so they are currently disabled in the build system. Are you interested in taking over development of any of them?
As we are in soft feature freeze mode now you would have to restart development in playground/utils and have a first chance for inclusion of the program with preparations for KDE 4.2 again. Still, you can make independent releases in the meantime of course. Or move to extragear if you like. All of the below which will not find an active maintainer until May 2nd will be moved to tags/unmaintained/4 otherwise.
- KMilo - KDED module to support various types of hardware input devices
- KSim - plugin-based system monitor
I suppose that KSim is obsoleted by Solid + some plasmoids. KMilo might be a candidate to end in Solid and kdebase/workspace/kcontrol/ ?
If you are interested in taking over maintainership of one of these programs please subscribe to the KDE Utils development mailinglist and say hello: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-utils-devel
You are also invited to subscribe if you are just interested in following development of the kdeutils module in general.

The Google Summer of Code has once again started, with KDE getting 47 projects this year, more than any other organisation (like last year). Status updates will be featured in the Digest over the following weeks this summer.
|
With the start of the Summer of Code, students are well underway implementing their projects. In the first of a series of individual introductions, Detlev Casanova talks about his project, "Jingle video and voice chat in Kopete":
|
I first installed Linux 4 years ago, starting with Mandrake and Debian. I tried a lot of distributions and I'm now at ease with Gentoo. I never used anything but KDE as a desktop environment (Well, except when I was still using Windows). I really like it, it has everything that is needed for day-to-day use and is highly configurable. Other desktop environments such as the famous GNOME or Enlightenment (which is more a window manager than a desktop environment) not so much.
I began learning C++ by writing a Qt application. This application is an XMPP client based on Qt4. By coding that, I got a lot of experience in C++ and Object-Oriented programming.
Now that I know C++ and Qt4 enough and I use KDE everyday, I wanted to participate in the project and the Google Summer of Code was the best opportunity. Working on the Jabber part of Kopete was the best thing I could do as I learned C++ with a Jabber client, and so I applied to add support for Jingle Video and Voice in Kopete as it is really missing in most Jabber clients.
At the end of the summer, I expect to have a working implementation of Jingle and that users will be able to communicate by webcam and voice using Kopete. Two "Transport Methods" will be implemented:- the Raw UDP method which will be used for direct connections (not behind a NAT)
- the ICE-UDP method which will be used for people behind a NAT.
That will help to having a kde-integrated, fully open source and open standard way to communicate by VoIP. Currently, lots of people are using Skype or MSN to use VoIP. Ekiga is a good option but written in GTK and OpenWengo is also an option but neither Ekiga or OpenWengo is multi-protocol so you would have to use many applications to chat with all the people you love :)
Of course, I don't expect it to be without bugs at the end of the summer, it will just be working but I'll continue working on it and on Kopete in general. In the future, I will also try to help work on other parts of the KDE project like Plasma, Amarok, or Dolphin which are projects in which I am really interested too.
About Me
I'm a 19 year old Belgian student from the University of Liège, first year in the computer science department. Since I discovered the free and open source world, I try to use mostly free software, I find it more stable and as I'm really curious, it's great to see how it works! I am also really interested in robotics, and I participated 2 times at the Eurobot Belgian Robotics Cup with teams from Mons - I'd like to create my own team for 2009.

Albert Astals Cid committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdegames/ktuberling:
|
Patch from David Benjamin to fix loading only working if you have the same size you had when saving (*ouch*)
Along with it comes some code refactoring that has the nice side effect of not needing the Qt4.4 ifdef anymore |

Thomas McGuire committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdepim/kmail:
|
Fix totally broken renaming of online IMAP folders:
- emit the closed() signal before calling folderMgr()->contentsChanged()
This fixes an refcount assert when calculating the unread count.
The assert would trigger there because the folder is closed with refcount 0 but still selected. Now, the headerview will open the folder before that, making the refount 1.
- Don't show an error message when the old folder couldn't be unsubscribed. That error message doesn't make sense, since the old folder does not exist anymore, and therefore can't be unsubscribed anyway.
- Let the mainwidget re-open the folder after it is renamed. This fixes an assert when switching away from an renamed folder, which would close it despite not having called open() before.
- Also change the objectname when renaming, now renaming the same folder more than once works.
- tabs-- |

Andreas Pakulat committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdevplatform/language:

Add a base class for simple language supports which encapsulates all the house-keeping stuff for building contexts.
This was factored out from python support and will be used from python and QMake. |

Andreas Pakulat committed changes in /trunk/KDE:
|
Rework how fetching of context menu actions from plugins work.
The actual 2 context menus we had are empty for now as I still need to write the actual merging code. But the infrastructure is in place and the various places ported.
It allows to specify actions and into which group in the menu they should appear in.
BTW: This change was completely developed in KDevelop4!!! |

Richard Dale committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdebindings/ruby/plasma:
|
* Added a Plasma Data Engine for querying SPARQL endpoints, and returning the results passed to setData() as two strings and a Qt::Variant - the source name, a variable name from the query, followed by a Qt::Variant containing a Soprano::Node as the value of the result.
* The example data engine queries DBPedia for details of the albums for an artist given the artists name.
* So the source might be 'The Velvet Underground', and the results will be all the albums they have released with album name, dbpedia resource urn for the album, and date released. The album name appears both as the source name and an attribute of the source too.
* Enhanced the engineexplorer to work with Qt::Variants containing Soprano::Nodes |

Hamish Rodda committed changes in /trunk/playground/devtools/kdevelop4-extra-plugins/java:
|
Start to resurrect Java support.
- correct the plugin desktop file to support text/x-java
- port to new kdevplatform interfaces
- remove support for codemodel (deleted)
- few changes to generated code in kdevelop-pg (this will go away once we switch to kdevelop-pg-qt I presume)
- parser and duchain dump classes
- start work on a duchain
Problems:
- for some reason, it wanted to install into /usr rather than $KDE4 - ???, so I had to force the directory (CMake gurus invited to look into please :)
- need to switch to kdevelop-pg-qt
- seems to be some problem with the AST of functions, the block following them is not referenced (is it even parsed?) |

Torsten Rahn committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdeedu/marble:
|
Welcome MapThemeManager, welcome GeoSceneDocument!
This is going to replace the MapTheme-kludge now and furthermore preparing for the new layer management
- Adding MapThemeManager stub to ControlView
- Parsing a dummy DGML2 file in the MarbleModel::setMapTheme() method as an initial introduction of the whole GeoScene model
Adding a test dgml file. This needs to get renamed from .dgm2 to .dgml later on again once everything works as expected. |

Dmitry Suzdalev committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdegames/libkdegames:
|
Add a possibility to specify whether a KGamePopupItem should hide itself when clicked.
Before this change it was always hidden on click.
Now I added setHideOnMouseClick(bool) function which can be used to toggle this behaviour.
This can be useful in e.g. kdiamond (for its "Game paused" message) and in an upcoming patch for kmines from Gnushi.
CC-ing kde-games-devel in case some other games might find this addition useful. |

digiKam from trunk : LensCorrection image editor plugin :
- Use right dialog to have fine editing Lens correction settings preview.
- Fix slots and signals names to be speedly read source code.
* Update preview with Lens type is changed.
Adrian:
- Now plugin is suitable as well and work properlly, but of course uncomplete.
- Bugs 143864 and 125233 will be closed when chromatic aberrations corrections will be corrected by this plugin.
- Still few camera model not supported properlly by LensFun. There is no message to gui to ping user about.
- Sometime, LensFun device is null when a camera model is selected. Why?
- We need to improve gui to have a manual correction: for ex, lens focal must be selectable somewhere, and certainly more settings as Aperture. We need to discut about.
- I think than a visual preview of distorsion using a grid is a excelent guide to users (like LensDistorsion plugin do) |

Marcel Wiesweg committed changes in /trunk/extragear/graphics/digikam/utilities/searchwindow:
|
Implement a basic search widget for Rating.
The requirement is to search as well for the "No Rating" status, and to have an "empty, no value selected status".
There is a subclass of a RatingWidget visible in the line edit place.
The combo box itself uses a custom model and custom delegate to present all available options.
Some more graphical tweaking is needed, but the logic is there. |

Re-implement 'Send Input to All' (now Edit -> Copy Input To...)
Improvements in the KDE 4 version:
- Input can be copied to all other sessions or only a subset of sessions, selection is via a filter-able list which appears when 'Copy Input To...' is clicked.
- Input can be sent from a tab in one window to a tab in another window (all sessions in all windows are displayed in the filter window) |

Improved server socket communication. It turns out Qt's QDataStream operators are not intended to be used with large amounts of data.
Thus, now Soprano has its own which make sure the data to be read is available and also handles errors.
This fixes the communication problems with Strigi, too. |

Amarok support. If Amarok gets MPRIS support, this will become obsolete.

make vertical alignment of inline-tables and inline-blocks comply with requirements of CSS 2.1 - 10.8.1.
we'll only apply the inline table logic to pure CSS tables though, to remain compatible with what Gecko and Opera do.

Germain Garand committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdelibs/khtml:
|
Mousewheel-driven smooth scrolling support.
This is based on nice experimental logic once made by Allan, that was later dubiously integrated by various vendors. The timings were revisited to enhance responsiveness, aiming for a feeling close to FireFox's.
We support two main enabling modes : unconditional (Enabled), and energy-conscious (WhenEfficient) - that will avoid smooth scrolling pages with static elements.
Improvements to scrolling efficiency for static elements will make the worst-case in Enabled mode quite rare, but still not unlikely.
WhenEfficient is thus the recommended mode. |

Seb Ruiz committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok/src/playlist:
|
When in RandomTracks mode, don't repeat tracks.
This is acheived by keeping to lists: all tracks played and all unplayed tracks. The unplayed track list is efficiently kept in synch with the introduction of a new flag in the TrackAdvancer class which sub-class implementations should look for.
Unhandled state: when do we clear the "recently played" track list? Every X plays? |

Seb Ruiz committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok/src:
|
Create a more robust method of changing playlist modes (repeat/random).
Now we have the infrastructure available to allow any possible combination of repeat and random modes.
Eg: Random tracks in random albums repeating the playlist.
Not that they are all implemented.
Also, this implementation removes all hard coded index retreival when determining which mode was selected. |

Nikolaj Hald Nielsen committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok/src/servicebrowser:

A very rough attempt at making the Ampache service act as a trackProvider.
It works but there are a number of things that are very wrong with this implemenation, mostly that it is completely syncronous, which is a really abd idea when sending multiple requests to an external web server.
It also requires that the Ampache servie authenticates itsef syncronously...
I am very open for suggestion about the correct way to implement this without breaking the trackForUrl framework. |

Greatly simplify the lyrics applet.
Don't show titles or labels, as it should be clear that its related to the current song.
This exposes at least one bug with the layouting, as the contentsrect is longer than the view, but I would still put this down as an improvement |

Adam Pigg committed changes in /trunk/koffice/kexi/plugins/reportspgz:

Added the initial parts of a KSpreadRenderer (not functioning yet) and a chart component. The chart component is missing saving and rendering, but the designer does a live preview.
To use it you must create a data source query with atlast 2 columns, the first is used as the data labals, the others for the data.
In the sample database with 'persons' and 'cars' tables, the query 'select name, age from persons' would work. |

Preloading of network resources via a side-tokenizer.
based on patch by Antti Koivisto, ported and reworked so that it is simpler and more efficient.
What it does is, while the main tokenizer is blocked because of a script that's not yet arrived - scan ahead the content we have already received in order to locate and start requesting other resources.
This cuts the loading time in half on many high profile pages! |

Merge the svncppremove branch.
At the end I decided not to remove it completely but instead just copy it and fix it up to be usable.
Writing our own wrapper is too much work actually and injecting the C-API of svn into our nice svn code is plain ugly.
This should make subversion support work on all machines again, if not its a bug and I'll have to fix it. |

David Capel committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdeedu/parley/src/eduwidgets:
|
This is the initial commit of a possible design for the new "EduWidget" Parley practice dialog framework (a possible gsoc project).
At the moment, it is only headers; this is because it is for design purposes.
The general overview of the proposed framework is as follows:
There would be a set of EduWidgets, for lack of a better name, that would be used to create the various practice dialogs.
Each EduWidget represents a particular common element in a practice mode (question display, user input, statistics, etc), and it would contain all the logic to do its task within it. Each practice mode would use the QWidget that makes sense for its purposes to display the EduWidget (for example, the user input would be a LineEdit in the question & answer mode).
Using the signal/slots mechanism, making a new mode would be as easy as selecting which EduWidgets you want, picking how you want to display them, and adding them to an SVG template.
For more detail, look at my gsoc application [me = David Capel] ;) Questions/comments welcome. |

Add links to corresponding sub-page of http://games.kde.org for each game as Emil described on k-g-d.
The only game i left unchanged is ksudoku - it already has ksudoku.sourceforge.net as homepage, not sure if i should change this - need to ask authors.
Also some games (f.e. kdiamond) don't have page on games.kde.org, but Emil said they'll be there for 4.1, so i'll added links in advance. |

Harri Porten committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdelibs/kjs:
|
First shot at public KJS API. We hid the one that we had in 4.0 because compatibility was hard to guarantee with ongoing performance improvements.
This one goes back to the original Object, Number etc. approach but does so much more leight-weight and without being in the hot path for most operations.
Missing: completion of custom functions, writable properties and arrays. |

A start on the WMI backend, using some WMI code that compiles and works in an example application.
Removed all dbus stuff out of the backend, as it causes some definition errors. In no way does this work yet but it's a beginning at least. |

Say hello to desktop search in krunner again. This time we use the Xesam spec so it is indexer agnostic.

The notes applet is back:
- It uses a QTextedit now,
- the SVG isn't shown yet
- one can edit text
- and rezize the applet
- it doesn't save it
- and lots of logic is commented
Still ... yeah.
Ow, and new artwork from Nuno is already on my disk... |

Make the tasks applet behave again.
AbstractTaskItem has become a QGraphicsWidget, not an Applet (who had that idea..?).
The applet seems to be having a fixed upper size set, I'm going to investigate that next. |

ugh...
parsing "df" output is horribly ineffecient and unreliable.
it also does not work most of the cases.
So now we have a fullblown class which wraps statvfs() in an async and extremely difficult to use API.
Absolutely great.
Fixes the "free space" monitor in dolphin. it could have been fixed by calling "df -a" as well, but I love ripping out code. and this rips out lots of crufty misty and sloppy code. Yay! |

Rework the way window settings (size and menubar/toolbar visibility) is handled in konqueror; the KMainWindow autosave mechanism is now used directly with the profiles; so when you resize a webbrowsing window it is now automatically saved into the webbrowsing profile, etc.
GUI: For this reason the checkbox "save window size in profile" is gone from the profile dialog. |

Port to new behavior of KTabWidget: close buttons are on the right of a tab, so no need anymore to hide the icon when close buttons are active.
Probably we could new even enable close buttons on tabs by default? |

Mark Kretschmann committed a change to /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok/src/playlist/PlaylistWidget.cpp:
|
Get rid of the redundant and bulky widget border around the playlist.
Makes Amarok 2 resemble the original mockup more closely.
Kudos to Max Kossick, who came up with this idea.
I also tried to do the same with the context view, but this looked odd and disjointed for some reason, so I removed it.
Might need some more thinking / tinkering. |

Default to using the kde crash handler instead of spitting things to the console.
This allows people to opt in to getting a backtrace instead of having it grind away for a while on a crash and is a bit more visible.
We can disable this whenever we figure out what we want to do with our custom crash handler |

Eike Hein committed changes in /branches/extragear/kde3/network/konversation:

Merge the rewrite of connection management and instanciation, along with related code. This brings about a large set of changes and improvements, so get a beverage and make yourself comfortable:
- Improved behavior with regard to reusing existing connections in connection attempts that provide an initial channel to join, such as command line arguments, the DCOP interface, the bookmark system or irc:// links). Previously, the application would have inconsistently either reused an existing or created a new connection.
- Better dialog messages in the interactive variant of the decision to either reuse or create a new connection (from the Server List dialog and the Quick
connect dialog).
- Improved and more consistent display of connection names (i.e. network or server host name) throughout the application.
- Much improved irc:// URL support for connection intanciation, with support added for IPv6 host names and many of the features proposed by the Mirashi
specification.
- Eliminated redundant irc:// URL parsing codepaths in favor of a single one.
- Added support for irc:// URLs to the chat views.
- Removed "konversationircprotocolhandler" shell script. The Konversation executable now understands irc:// URLs directly.
- Initiating connections from command line arguments and options now works also when the application is already running.
- Fixed a bug that would cause a connection initiated from command line options not to get past the identity validation stage when the configuration file was unitialized and empty.
- The server list dialog will now always be closed when starting Konversation with command line arguments to initiate a connection, consistent with the configuration-based auto-connect behavior
- Providing a channel in the creation of a new connection (i.e. via command line arguments, the DCOP interface, the Quick Connect dialog, the bookmark system or irc:// links) now consistently pre-empts the stored auto-join channel list if the target of the connection is a network or the hostname is found to be part of a configured network. Previously, tis would only work for Quick Connect and the bookmark system (which caused the infamous Sabayon user flood in #kde due to their "Get Support" desktop link connecting to Freenode, which in an unconfigured Konversation has #kde in its auto-join list)...
- Connections now have globally unique IDs.
- The DCOP interface now understands connection IDs in addition to host names.
- The scripting systems now uses globally unique connection IDs rather than server host names to refer to connections, fixing a bug where scripted responses were being handed to all connections sharing a hostname (which was actually intentional in the absence of connection IDs, but undesirable for users).
- Ported the DCC code away from relying on server group IDs to refer to connections, made it use connection IDs instead. Fixes potential bugs with multiple concurrent connections to the same network.
- Improved iteration behavior over a network's server list on connection losses.
- The "Reconnect" action now works also when Konversation doesn't consider the connection to be in a disconnected state.
- Improved the server status view messages related to reconnection attempts.
- Improved the naming of preferences related to automatic reconnection attempts to be less confusing.
- Made it possible to set the number of automatic reconnection attempts to unlimited.
- Provided better default values to the preferences related to automatic reconnection attempts.
- Consistently apply the "Reconnect delay" setting (previously confusingly named "Reconnect timeout"), which wasn't done before.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the connection process to claim that a DNS lookup was successful when it actually wasn't.
- Fixed opening bookmarks with spaces in the target address name (which may be a network name, and networks may have spaces in their name).
- Properly update the state of the "Add/Remove to Watched Nicknames" nickname context menu actions when the connection isn't to a config-backed network, in which case there's no way to store and make use of those list entries.
- Fixed a crash when quitting the application with a resident connection that disconnected due to an SSL error.
- Fixed crashes in the DCOP interface if no connection was present.
- Lay the groundwork for the upcoming auto-away merge.
- Massive code cleanups.
This was also the biggest outstanding to-do item for the upcoming 1.1 release. |
Bug 150377: Bookmark of channels in different servers could not work
Bug 137843: Have DCOP call signatures accept server:port in addition to port
Bug 139861: Keywords: Aliases, same channel, different network, double post

Moving Okteta from kdereview to kdeutils.
The two weeks in kdereview passed without any objection, also the module coordinator is okay with it, (who's me, after all), so Okteta is in.
That is, kdeutils.
The code in kdeutils/okteta/{core,gui,parts} obsoletes the one in kdeutils/khexedit/{core,gui,parts}, as it was branched from the latter one before, so that one is removed now.
And such the khexedit directory is completely empty and is removed, too, because the code for the program KHexEdit was removed as unmaintained before the 4.0 release.
[memorial minute]
You will stay in many people's memory, KHexEdit.
[/memorial minute].
But hopefully Okteta will be better soon, so let's go on now :.Please, could someone from the translation team move the translations, too?
Thanks a lot. |
