Linux: KDE Commit Digest on KRDC

,----[ Quote ]
| KRDC has been part of KDE for a quite long time. It is an important tool for 
| network administrators and other people who need to work on or administrate a 
| remote desktop. Over the years, many bug reports and feature requests have 
| accumulated on bugs.kde.org for KRDC. So, I decided to work on it as a Google 
| Summer of Code project in order to remedy this.

aKademy 2007: Text Layout Summit

,----[ Quote ]
| aKademy 2007 hosted two mini-summits, one for Schools and Education and one 
| for Text Layout. The Text Layout Summit was a true cross platform event, and 
| followed from the one last year at the Gnome Summit. Text layout is a complex 
| area requiring advanced knowledge of dozens of different writing methods. 
| With funding from The Linux Foundation they brought together people from 
| Pango, Qt, IBM ICU (Intl. Components for Unicode), SIL Graphite, Unifont.org, 
| m17n, W3C and DejaVu. Getting the various widget sets to have the same high 
| quality support for all scripts is a problem the summit hoped to solve.
