animations in plasma with javascript on top

,----[ Quote ]
| We were lucky this summer in that not only 
| did we have a bunch of our own great Google 
| Summer of Code students, but we got one more 
| for "free": a student working with another 
| mentor organization that has a strong 
| working relationship with KDE completed 
| their assigned project rather quickly, and 
| so we inherited them, and another half-
| project, for the second half of the summer. 
| They worked on animations using the new 
| QtKinetic framework that appears in Qt 4.6 
| and over the last couple of weeks a number 
| of Plasma hackers descended up on that work. 
| We cleared out some of the lose ends, 
| cleaned up the code, added a bunch more 
| functionality and merged it into trunk this 
| past week.

Akonadi goes Web2.0

,----[ Quote ]
| I donât know whatâs going on, but I didnât 
| want Akonadi to miss the party. At the 
| recent Akonadi sprint, I decided to spend 
| some time putting together a proof of 
| concept for a web client for Akonadi. Hereâs 
| a screencast of the result:
| 
| Ogg link.
| 
| The video shows web pages in multiple web 
| browsers showing the same data as KMail, 
| KAddressBook and the proof of concept gtk 
| applications I wrote about before, with 
| everything kept in sync. They share the same 
| data. I could edit the same data in the web 
| pages too if I had taken the time to write 
| the javascript code to handle it.

Plasma: Where we are going

,----[ Quote ]
| One of the great things about our semi-annual Tokamak
| developer sprints is that it's a great way for us to
| refocus our energies on the future. By doing so, we make
| sure that the path that our feet are on today is a good
| one. At Tokamak 3, several goals and vision clarifications
| emerged and I'd like to share them with all of you.
