Creating a map of KDE contributors?

Hi everyone, I recently realized that unless you ask fellow KDE contributors personally where they live, you don't really know where over the world (or even in your home country) KDE is spread. I think this is a pity, given that knowing that would allow us to, among other things - show the

Re: KDE Licensing Policy Updates

Official "Going to Akademy" banner by Ivan Čukić

Dear community, as most of you know, each year, there is a banner for people who go to Akademy to put into their blog posts (or on their social media profiles or wherever) so that the world sees which cool people they can meet there if they're going, and/or donate to KDE so those people can

We now have an Advisory Board

Dear KDE, in case you haven't read the Dot article [1] yet: KDE now has an Advisory Board, consisting of KDE e.V.'s Patrons as well as organizations using our software on a large scale (currently LiMux) and other NGOs with visions/missions similar to ours. The list of members is on the

Hey everyone, just a quick progress update: I have now cleaned up https://notes.kde.org/p/KDE_IM_requirements by removing duplicates, removing all discussion / comments (so only plain requirements are left) and rewording most requirements to that they have a somewhat common wording. The next

Collecting requirements for a KDE-wide instant messaging solution (was: Re: radical proposal: move IRC to Rocket.Chat)
