KDE 4.4 Kreeps Kloser to Komplete

,----[ Quote ]
| This release also includes a whole slew of 
| new widgets for KDE. This includes a 
| "Webslice" plasmoid to display a part of a 
| Webpage, a spellcheck widget, an on-screen 
| keyboard, and a blackboard widget that 
| allows users to paint with the mouse or 
| even multitouch devices "on platforms that 
| support them." KDE inherited multitouch 
| support from Qt4.6, and could make KDE a 
| contender on mobile devices and tablets.

What We Did Last Summer (And the Rest of 2009) â A Look Back Onto the
Nepomuk Development Year With an Obscenely Long Title

,----[ Quote ]
| Querying data in Nepomuk pre-KDE-4.4 could 
| be done in one of two ways: 1. Use the very 
| limited capabilities of the ResourceManager 
| to list resources with certain properties 
| or of a certain type; or 2. Write your own 
| SPARQL query using ugly QString::arg 
| replacements.
| 
| With the introduction of Virtuoso and its 
| awesome power we can now do pretty much 
| everything in one query. This allowed me to 
| finally create a query API for KDE: 
| Nepomuk::Query::Query and friends. I wonât 
| go into much detail here since I did that 
| before.

DE SC 4.4 branched, trunk reopens

,----[ Quote ]
| So tonight, release-team-hero Dirk has
| branched off KDE SC 4.4 from trunk. Let
| quickly explain what this means. Trunk/ is
| a directory in KDEâs SVN repository, the
| central place holding where all the code
| from different contributors spread across
| our planet comes together. In a big team
| like KDE, we need some coordination to be
| actually able to release our software
| packages once in a while. Since the release
| of KDE 4.0.0, a typical KDE release cycle
| takes 6 months. Roughly 4 months of
| development, followed by about 2 months of
| stabilization and testing towards a
| release. In the stabilization period, which
| starts with the feature and string freeze,
| only bugfixes and code improvements are
| allowed. This is also the period where we
| release regular test releases, in our case
| a beta1, right after the feature freeze,
| and a second beta (happened shortly before
| christmas). The next test release is coming
| soon, which is -rc1.
