Wow!

Dang, those guys are GOOD! Really impressive accomplishments, ALL of them. (I usually don't use caps, but today I am making an exception.) Now, could Google please hire these guys as KDE hackers full time please?

Damn, aren't those guys a little bit _too_ good? I was thinking about applying next year, but seeing these results, I've realized that it's just far beyond my (currently non-existent) ability. ;)

No seriously; great work, all of you! The results are truly amazing, looking forward to trying it out myself.

Off topic question: Is it possible to run KOffice2 on Windows too? (Seeing that Mac OS X screenshot, I guess the answer is yes?)

I'm sure you can compete: the gsoc is enormous learning experience for all involved. I bet some of our students didn't know they'd be able to get this far. Personally, I've seen proposals for funded research that were less ambitious than some KDE gsoc projects.

Oh, and about windows: Adrian Page has been committing fixes to get KOffice compiled with Visual C++, so I guess the answer is yes.
