KDE Contributor Conference 2003 "Kastle" Report

Posted by Hemos on from the read-all-about-it dept.

Last weekend the KDE Contributor Conference 2003 in Nove Hrady ("Kastle") ended. There's a conference report, all slides and papers have been published, and there are lots of photos including the obligatory group photo (use mouse pointer and look at the status bar to see the names!). Also part of kastle were the KOffice Developers' Meeting and the presentation of Qt 4.

  1. This is great! by Vann_v2 · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I read the KOffice Developers' Meeting page and it says that they'll be switching to OpenOffice.org's file format for all major applications. As someone who occasionaly uses both OpenOffice.org and KOffice this is great news, and will also provide an easy way to translate between current KOffice formats and OpenOffice.org. Maybe we have on our hands a new, truly cross-platform file format.

  2. Not everyone minds the Kisms by nurb432 · · Score: 4, Interesting

    True its often over done, but at its root it makes a LOT of sense.

    If its prefixed with K, you pretty much can guess its integrated with KDE..

    Don't forget, G goes with Gnome.. I don't see people bitching about that, and its just as effective/silly/etc.
