KDE TextCompletion History Editor
Beineri

So did I regularly and the only GUI-way to "correct" it until now was to clear all entries via the context menu's "Clear History". Not really a satisfying solution. :-)

I moved my blog from kdedevelopers.org to wordpress.com. The new address is http://agateau.wordpress.com.
This new blog will stay KDE focused, but will also include more general geek stuff and real-life news. I just posted my first KDE related blog entry. It's about the new way to save images in Gwenview. I am eagerly waiting for Planet KDE readers to check and comment :-)

KOffice as a whole is aimed to be used worldwide, in all sorts of environments and it has to be usable for all sorts of scripts and languages. I'm proud to tell you that the todo list on getting that done is starting to be really really small.

I have been working on providing Microsoft Exchange capability for Akonadi on-and-off for a while. It is coming together - I can suck messages off the server into akonadiconsole. More on that later (or as part of the commit-digest, perhaps).

Apple bought CUPS
News here and here
/me wide-eyed but neutral (still).
I don't have a good knowledge of the internals of the CUPS community, but from my ignorant viewpoint, Michael Sweet had the largest hand in that code. It's now mostly up to the community. Which is a great one, for having produced the most dependable printing platform 0$ can buy.

The first mockups of an eventual future main KDEPrint dialog
Rutger Claes, KDEPrint's GSoC student for the new UI design, published his report on today's most common forms of printing interfaces. He also offers the fruit of his analysis of how the main dialog should appear in KDE.

Time

Time, going fast with no way to be stopped, relentlessly going on and on over our existences... Ok ok, stopping the philosophy now ;)
The fact is that my last blog entry is about 5 (!, yeah) months ago, and of course many things happened during these months.
