Re: korganzier

I'm the guy doing utterly useless work :)

I'm working on this for a Summer of Code project, whose goal is to improve KOrganizer's theme support and write some example plugins (see http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Summer_of_Code/2007/Projects/KOrganizer_theming_improvements); you'll get more info on this on my blog: http://blog.loic.corbasson.fr/

Now, on the "ugliness" of the calendar, I do not share your opinion: while certainly not perfect, I think KOrganizer does a quite good job. Could you please elaborate on the precise things you'd like to see improved? I do not have much time (in France, the spring semester ends in the end of June, so now is projects' ending and finals' preparation time), and no Outlook or Mac handy, so this would help me grasp what you mean. Even though it's outside the scope of what I have to do for Summer of Code, I'll have a look at what I could improve when working on the CalendarTheme interface in July if it's really that ugly :)

Imho, the calendar looks fine, but I don't know any better either. I DO know the MS outlook one is nothing better. Maybe some gradients or something, smooth, rounded corners... Sounds doable with Qt4/KDE4.

BTW I applaud your offer to work on this! I think the parent really should answer your questions. And nice work, I DO like the plugins a lot ;-)
