Why everything I do lately doesn't work!!!! first the palmos and now my main desktop ... What could be worst than that? My new girlfriend leaving me for my ex-wife???? Read More

The lack of comfort when joining mailing lists is annoying. If anybody wants to make me a little bit less grumpy, try the following: design a XML Scheme / file format to describe a mailing list (and especially how to join and leave it) register a corresponding mime type in KDE add a handler for that file type in KMail, or write a stand-alone app that uses the KMail backend when somebody clicks on a link with that mime type in Konqui, start the handler the handler will, after some GUI to explain it to the user and asking for permission, create a folder for the mailing list in KMail, create a filter for the mailing list, write a mail to the registration address to join and reply automatically to the confirmation mail KMail should have a 'unsubscribe' context menu entry that lets a user unsubscribe automatically That would be useful... The next step, of course, would be a more comfortable way of browsing and finding mailing lists. KMail could have a build-in list of mailing lists (or download one) so people don't need to search for them. Read More

folk festing all weekend at the Calgary Folk Fest... hope to meet Ani at the after party tonight... no KDE'ing till the weekend's over... =)

OK... So I have managed to install KDE on qt-copy these days... now going back to development... I am figuring, that xmame has some really weird and funky options, like -norotate isn't exactly the same as rotation switch disabled, and -nothrottle isn't the same as throttle switch disabled... Weird... Ok... So I have deactivated the -[no]command switches and now it should work better... Specially in the advanced mode... Read More

Hmm, I'm not sure how twisted this is, but I want to do something other than hack irc for a few days. At work everyone is on ICQ, so I run sim to talk to them. But I've never liked the way IM apps run, what was wrong with IRC?!? Read More

Ugh, another bugfix rejected. This one affects at least KAlarm, JuK, KGPG, KGet and Kopete. Bug was acknowledged; patch acknowledged; won't fix before 3.3 (probably more than a year and no help for KDE 3.2). Read More

Update on bugs.kde.org: The new script old-bugs-statistics is now up and running. It includes links to "bug lists" containing all the possibly outdated reports, making the former "Idle Reports Search" on the front page redundant. I consequently removed it and cleaned up the front page a little. I'm pretty sure that old-bugs-statistics combined with weekly-bug-summary and all their included links fulfil most (useful) statistic and bug hunting needs. If not let me know. Read More

Well, I still have no time to hack on KDE, (well, Kopete to be more specific) but that's ok since I just made a nice breakthrough with my algorithms project that's due on Monday night (6pm). I was having problems getting Kruskal's down from O(n2 log n) to O(n log n), but i figured it out so I'm happy now. Now if I could only find a graph generator. :) Read More

Why I accepted this contract!!!!!! spent 3 weeks debugging this crappy rs232 protocol ........ and my cat now know all the french canadian swear .... bah! It will end soon and I will be able to do some fun stuff ... well I hope. Read More

Finally! With a bit of hacking and borrowing from the new libxmpp code, the Kopete Jabber plugin is now able to properly encrypt messages and can thus talk with Psi and other Jabber clients in a secure way. Read More
