Re: Taking on maintenance of Latte Dock
Yeah that would be great if you have the skills to take over. You'll need to know QML and lots of quite specialist knowledge about the internals of how Plasma works. There should be people happy to help and I see some good discussion on the merge request you made but it is quite specialist so you won't always get a quick answer. If you want to fork Latte in KDE invent and work on it that would be perfectly acceptable for now, or apply for a KDE dev account but we'll need to see a few more contributions for that I think. Do try to get onto Matrix, use webchat.kde.org or neochat and say hi in the Plasma room.

Re: Taking on maintenance of Latte Dock
Hi Lana, thanks for volunteering on taking on this project! And yes, you should get a developer account, see https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/Get_a_Developer_Account On Sun, Oct 15, 2023 at 11:04 PM Lana Black wrote: > > Hello list, > > I tried poking various people on IRC and what not about this, but nobody > pointed me in the right direction, so I'm here. > I'm willing to take on maintenance of Latte, because it's just so cool and I > would very much hate to see it go.
