Well almost everything was said in the title... The main information for the planet is the official KDE 4.0.0 announcement (and the huge party in Mountain View) ! I tried to help the dream to become true, and I want to thanks all the KDE core developers : THANK YOU SO MUCH !
Thanks to Aaron, Anne-Marie, Jonathan, Adriaan and all the community the next generation desktop is now a reality and for the sake of the Open Source community's dynamism it's a great news. And for the sake of my desktop it's even a greater news !
I just can't wait for the images/video/blog entries of the release party ! I hope you will enjoy the same feeling I did the first time I got Plasma running.
Now for my little announcement : as soon as the C++ part of the slack-get library is written, I'll write a Plasmoid which will allow you to stay up-to-date by just looking at your (beautiful) desktop !
Last but not least, starting today I take a break from all coding activities (slack-get as well as KDE), and go 10 days in the Alps trying breaking one or two legs on my snowboard !
I'll try to provide some pictures
If the internet can't climb to Val d'Isère, or if I'm so badly hurt that i can't use my laptop, or if i'm just too lazy to write a blog entry : see you in 10 days ! More probably : see you in few days.
