Gnome bindings discussions

I thought the discussion on the Gnome developer list about C vs C# vs Python etc for writing desktop apps was very interesting. A lot of it could equally well apply to the KDE project. Read More

KOffice is out; and what a delivery it was :)

Zander  | 
The 1.5 series of KOffice has been a good one for the suite; with several new applications and a much improved stablity for its main applications one thing became clear, we got new people that started working on KOffice.

On KWin wobbling and such stuff

As some might have noticed, KWin is supposed to get compositing support, allowing a wider range of various effects and replacing KDE3.x's separate kompmgr (developed by Thomas Lübking, based on the original xcompmgr, and according to e.g. this doing rather well for its time). This is in line with today's general belief that compositing managers should not be separate but part of window managers, as it allows for example better syncronization of effects and their wider range (and it will also allow us to get rid of the plain C that kompmgr is, bleh).
