Our goal would be to release the next version of GGZ with complete libraries for five programming languages, and we’re now very close already with the recent additions ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=151 What does the future of printing look like? While nobody knows for sure, there are certain trends such like the ubiquitous availability of a printing service nearby, available from the user’s computer. When devices are discovered dynamically, their capabilities need to be conveyed to the user. Right now, only the ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=150 Somewhen after midnight last night GGZ 0.99.2 snapshot was uploaded. Just a few hours after, the next cool patch was created. Development runs at high speed at the moment, even though I’m still busy drawing presentation slides like a dull ODP monkey for my 2nd job (lecturer). After my two FOSDEM ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=149 The Chemnitzer Linux-Tage just finished - an enjoyable event like every year, with a certain community spirit not often met at events of that size. The KDE booth was staffed by four people (smajewsky, eckhart, tokoe and me).

A good choice in between ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=147 My slides for the FOSDEM Lightning talks were just sent in, nothing can go wrong, except that I’m the last speaker on Sunday and could be trapped into drinking Belgian beer while missing my flight back to Berlin. The devroom slides are also mostly finished. Now I just need to find ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=146 After buying a new jacket and several other real-life errands on Saturday, I’ve spent most of the weekend hacking like I haven’t been able for a long time anymore. Not joining IRC or reading too many news proved very valuable for the desired level of productivity. Reaching #11 on CIA ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=145 KDE, with its 500 employees, gained 10.9 million dollars in revenue in 2007. However, the future looks tough with Linux (from Seattle) starting to enter the market as a competitor. Sounds weird, huh? Such content will likely increase on the web if people who think they get semantic relationships (while in ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=144 Vor einiger Zeit hatte ich bei der Datenkrake Post mal angefragt, was denn dran sei an den Berichten über die Weiterleitung aller möglichen und unmöglichen Daten zu den Freunden jenseits des großen Teiches. Bis heute habe ich dazu keine Antwort bekommen. Vermutlich gibt es da diverse Geheimhaltungsklauseln. Möglich ist natürlich ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=143 Missed the KDE 4 release event? No problem, help us preparing some cool stuff for the following events: FOSDEM, Bruxelles, Belgium, February 23-24. 10th CLT, Chemnitz, Saxony, March 1-2. (Es werden noch Helfer gesucht, bitte via kde-events oder bei mir melden.) KDE @ fisl 9.0, Porto Alegre, Brasil, April 17-19. (Voy a viajar en las ... http://wp.kuarepoti-dju.net/index.php?p=142
