Hi all, this is a sign of life again from me (i've been virtually dead the last year++, not just in KDE land) and i'd like to address the "buzz" thing.
Out of a notion - and the fact that i couldn't look at the current buzz.kde.org site as it kept on killing my browser I tried to use my "spare time" to reimplement something like it again - yet cleaner and faster. I guess I managed to, sent the results to Lydia who also included Tom Albers in the discussion on finishing it. Nuno blessed the Design (mostly a copy of the orignial anyways, just a couple if details he had to check, mainly with the item's layout and design). I made it all GPL and included the license with all source files (those I wrote, there's also one PHP from the web [http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-proposal-show.php?id=198 BSD Licensed] and of course mootools [http://www.mootools.net MIT License] included as they are from the original websites). The code works fairly well and i've not yet had any real issues since the last bugs Jos Poortvliet found where ironed out. That was what i then committed to svn (/home/kde/trun/www/sites/buzz) as that's where TomA pointed me to. He was noticed by Lydia about it, i'll try to catch him today to see what's still there. If you want to have a look on what it is like now, point your browser to http://www.isis-marketing.at/buzz/ The last issue i can see is that the icons in the top row are all the same - which is in fact the "dot" icon from planetkde. I'd appreciate if you could point me to the correct icons for the other websites to be included. I'll be on IRC all day long today (at least till 4pm CET, maybe longer, no long travelling or flight planning or such today), channels #kde-promo, #oxygen, #kde-www and #kde-devel (still fkefer there ;-). Good to find my way back again, really, i felt SO bad already, but i couldn't help, my private life was going down for some time, and as that stopped my company kept sending me to all different places all over the world, with little internet for private use yet lots of interesting things to see... nice tradeoff, yet not for KDE. So "Hi, i'm trying to find my way back" to ya all (instead of bye) On 5 February 2010 20:06, Sebastian Kügler <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > A quick update on where we stand, release-PR-wise.
