Hi,

we have been developing a small desktop toy as a plasmoid for the last
few days and now tried to add notifications for events.

We already limited the botification number to one event per minute,
however, the code still freezes KDE.

The moment a notification is emitted, the notification sound is played
and then KDE becomes unresponsive until the closing of the plasmoid is
registered.

Hello,

I am working on *Provide “in-line” keyboard layout indicator project*,
but when I tried to build kde-workspace from the source code using cmake
2.8 it didn't complete bulding and I got this error:

"CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindKDE4.cmake:58 (message):

ERROR: Could not find KDE4 kde4-config

Call Stack (most recent call first):

CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:

should be added at the top of the file.

Hello KDE-community,

As I am currently working on a project which includes GCode parsing I
found out that my QEarleyParser which I implemented for my calculator
PhyxCalc works very well for syntax checking. So it came to my mind that on
the fly syntax checking would be a very nice feature for both kate and
kdevelop. I know it is a bit late for GSoC applications but wouldn't that be
great idea?

Hi KDE developers,

I am a prospective GSoC student who is interested in building the KDE Project Report web application. I've already submitted my application and I would really appreciate feedback, suggestion or anything from mentors who have access to the GSoC's proposals.

Hello,

I'm interested in doing the "Lazy/Asynchronous Plasmoid Initialization"
project for this year's GSoC.

Hello friends.

For those of you who still don't know me, I'm Roney, the current
maintainer of KBounce and KNavalbattle.

I have been part of the KDE Games group since last year when my
proposal for "Porting Games to a More Modern Graphics Framework" was
accepted and I had the luck to be mentored by Ian Wadham -- who taught
me things that go beyond the scope of programming, making the whole
GSoC experience a true life achievement.

Unluckily though, I couldn't dedicate myself as much as I would like
in the last months for I was involved in a very extense -- seven
months -- hiring process that

Hi

Don't know if this is a bit off topic (and if such is the case I am real
sorry), but I am in real need of you. Thing is, I am a frequent user of
open source software, and I am often amazed by the efforts people make in
order to provide me with products and services for free. I am now
conducting research for a masters' thesis trying to find out what motivates
developers to participate in open source projects.

Hello,

I have a small script that helps to generate parts of a Qt class.

Hi,

I'd like to do a GSoC project under KDE, so I' hoping that you'd co-operate
with me :)

Hi,

For this project I have checked out the KDE-workspace from git. I need to
to check out the dependencies for it - kdelibs, kactivities. What is the correct location to check out these dependencies. Is that any location or the same folder of the kde-workspace

Hello,

I am Jay Kapasi, thired year student of Computer Engineering. I
have gone through KDE idea list and I am interested in doing project
Integrate Android with workspace and vice versa. I am familiar with
Java,Android and basic of C++. I want more information based on project i.e
how it can progress, which main language is going to use, the flow of
project.

I have my own topic also. If i want to ask some question on it then
where & whom to ask. And if i'll mail on <a href="mailto:kde- ... at kde dot org">kde- ... at kde dot org</a> then it will be
accessible to everyone?

Thank you.

Hey ,

I am Kushal Khandelwal and I would like to apply for GSOC under KDE.
I am interested in the idea " Simple Project Report " .
From what I get from the description is that the aim is to get a single
window to all the details of the project fetched from various sources along
with some statistics.

I have experience in web development using HTML/CSS PHP javascript ,
Django. I have also worked on Ruby. I have been working towards Data Mining
and Visualization.

I would like to know more about this project and possible suggestions.

Hello,

I would like to apply for GSoC 2013 and I was wondering what the simpler
projects are on this page: <a href="http://community.kde.org/GSoC/2013/Ideas" title="http://community.kde.org/GSoC/2013/Ideas">http://community.kde.org/GSoC/2013/Ideas</a>

Full disclosure: This semester is my first as a Computer Science student, I
am learning C++ in my Data Structures and Algorithms class and I've done
some Ruby and Python on my own.

I know about the other integration utilities out there that exist, but my
idea was doing integration directly into the plasma desktop. For
example, notification would show up in the notifications area, and
battery information could be seen from the device manager.

Hey everyone,

I am trying to install kdelibs[1] on Ubuntu 12.10 but it so happens that
every time i give the cmake command i get an error of some dependency not
found and this has been happening for quite some time now. I have also
tried to install the missing dependencies manually but it is taking time. I
don't want to waste too much of my time installing kdelibs. I want to start
working on it right away.

The University of Koblenz-Landau (Germany) is looking for participants
for a research study revolving around the job situation of
(professional) open source developers. The goal of the study is to gain
insights on the effect of developers' double commitment to the community
and the organization.

Hey people I am a second year Engineering student of Information science. I
am a beginner in open source and I really want to contribute to it and want
to explore a lot but i really have no clue where to begin. I have knowledge
of C ,basics of C++ and little bit of unix commands . Can anyone please
help me out ? atleast to start off ? .I have tried the git tar and diff and
few basic commands.But I really really have no clue where to start :(.

Thankyou :)

I've got an idea for the 2013 GSoC: add projective geometry to kig.
This would need adding the relevant data structures, generalizing the
algorithms
and designing UI metaphors for the points "at infinity".

Hello everybody,

because I'm new to this mailing list I want to introduce myself. I'm a 24
years old student from Germany, interested in C++, software tests and
generative programming. I'm using KDE since several years and now I'm trying
to start developing and contributing to KDE.

That's why I'm writing this mail. I wrote a new runner that uses Google
Translate to translate sentences or words into any language.

A question to release experts,

The general case is: Assume I have package A which depends on package
B and package B provides libraries B1 and B2. If A is currently using
B1 and I add also linking to B2, is that considered an additional
dependency? Is that permitted between two minor releases?

The particular case is: I'm working on Nepomuk integration in KGet and
got to a point where I want to link it to the Nepomuk Query Libraries
and that would be for 4.10.2, is that possible?

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

KDE will ̣- for the first time this year - participate in the
"Outreach Program for Women"[1]. This was originally started by GNOME,
but has also other participating organisations like Wikimedia,
Mozilla, Fedora and others.

With KDAB as our sponsor we will be offering one internship.

Hi!
New release of the KCM. Fixes a couple of important bugs, update is
recommended.
