Looking forward to KDE Education meeting in Paris
Posted by JLP on October 27th, 2007
On 1st and 2nd December this year the KDE Education project is preparing its first meeting. I’ve already been to a similar event during aKademy 2007, where one day was dedicated to free and open source software in education and schools. I enjoyed it a lot and was very happy that Anne-Marie invited me to the meeting which will be happening in a little more than a month in Paris. I’ve already booked my flight and I can see that there are currently 10 more people registered at the travel page. Can’t wait to meet them all. Thanks to Anne-Marie for hard organisational work, thanks to KDE e.V. for sponsoring the meeting and thanks to Mandriva for allowing us to use their offices.
As a preparation for the meeting I have started to check out how to use Valgrind which helps you find memory leaks in the code. I used it on KStars and it revealed a problem in constellation boundary highlighting code which leaked about 13 MiB of memory on my short test run. As I had some more free time today, I also updated the Slovenian keyboard layout for KTouch and converted it into the new XML format. Blinken didn’t escape me as well.
These were my little contributions to KDE today. Now I have to prepare for a lot of work that awaits to have as much KDE 4 translated into Slovenian language as possible when it gets released.
