Spiffying up the interactive console

,----[ Quote ]
| Since people quickly jumped to various questions about the look and feel of the 
| interactive console, I figured I'd give a small update today about it. After working 
| on a few things around it, I ended up implementing the buttons as actions, a toolbar 
| and using a text editor part if available (and falling back to the plain text editor 
| widget if none exists).

Dropping remote content and wallpapers 

,----[ Quote ]
| The first feature, which is mostly thanks to Sebastian (I just did some janitorial 
| work on the patch), is the ability to drop remote content onto a Plasma::Containment 
| such as a desktop activity or a panel. Plasma, via KIO, tries to figure out what you 
| are dropping and then offers a set of matching widgets, if any, to create for that 
| content.

Side effects of using QtWebKit for desktop apps

,----[ Quote ]
| Integrating the web into desktop apps is now incredibly easy thanks to Qt WebKit.  Qt 
| WebKit also allows us to embed any Qt widget inside the html. This feature makes it 
| extremely tempting to develop full blown desktop applications using Qt WebKit â your 
| interface is entirely designed using html/css (instead of .ui) and you as a C++ 
| developer decide what parts are best done in Qt/C++ and embed them into the html 
| page.

kde - first commit!

,----[ Quote ]
| So, after waiting for a few days, I got a reply from KDE's sysadmin team, and I'm in. 
| My first patch is also now in -- thanks much to Martin for comments, review, and 
| assistance.

openSUSE to default to KDE

,----[ Quote ]
| openSUSE is defaulting to the KDE desktop, according to an announcement on
| the opensuse-project mailing list by Micahel LÃffler. From openSUSE 11.2
| onwards, the installation process from DVD will offer a choice between KDE
| and GNOME, with KDE pre-selected. Users accepting the default installation
| settings will therefore get a KDE desktop.
