Introducing KDE 4: Kwin
,----[ Quote ]
| KDE 3.5.x had an option for enabling composite called kcompmgr (which was a
| modified version of xcompmgr), it had basic functionality like transparency
| and fading, but nothing else, and it wasn't exactly fast.
|
| Then Compiz came, originally designed by Novell along with XGL, but, even if
| it can be used with KDE, it obviously was designed with GNOME in mind.
|
| The KDE developers wanted eye-candy composite for they KDE 4 series, so they
| had 3 options, writing a whole new window manager, use compiz or improving
| kwin, they took the last one.

Kontact and Citadel - experiences
,----[ Quote ]
| While there are many FLOSS Groupware servers out there, hardly any one them
| is reliable working with any FLOSS client. Recently my company had to bring
| Citadel and Kontact together, and we used the opportunity to patch while we
| go.

KDE 4 rev 802150: Work in progress

| KWin with Wobbly Windows
|
| Kwin features a new visual effect known to most of you from Compiz: the
| Wobbly Windows. Only a few days ago the settings panel for this effect had
| tons of detailed options. Most of these options have been disabled now, the
| only thing that can be configured is the window deformation level while in
| motion. This seems more appropriate for a common user since the number of
| configurable settings was overwhelming before. One minor flaw that I noticed
| in KWin Wobble Windows is that the window shadow is not properly deformed (it
| does not adjust to the current shape of the window).
