This Month in SVN is a new feature from Jes Hall covering the latest features in KDE's development version. The June edition covers the taskbar's new look, Kopete's new identities and Google Maps now working in Konqueror. "With 3.5 on the horizon and KDE4 work starting, KDE fans have a lot to look forward to."
In this week's KDE Commit-Digest (all in one page):
DCOP client/server implemented for KDE Win32.
New videodvd:/ KIO slave does on the fly decryption from DVD.
Kopete implements Yahoo! stealth feature.
Opening of WebCore development yields fruit: DOMParser, and CSS fixes.
Today, Apple Computer announced the immediate availability of the WebKit Open Source Project. It includes full access to the CVS of WebKit as well as an open bug database. "We're looking forward to working more closely with KDE and the rest of the open source community" said Safari developer Maciej Stachowiak.
KDE has joined Google's Summer of Code programme. If you are a student looking to get into KDE development this is the perfect opportunity. We have a list of rules and suggested projects. The deadline is soon, June 14th, for a completed proposal and you will probably need a week of communication first to ensure a good proposal for Google, so move quickly.

The conversion of KDE's source repository from CVS to Subversion is now complete. All KDE developers with CVS accounts now have Subversion accounts. To find out how to use your new Subversion account read the Using Subversion with KDE tutorial. To checkout anonymously use svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/ as the base of your Subversion repository URL. You can browse the repository through the web at http://websvn.kde.org/.
If you are looking for web hosting for a KDE project, look no further. I am offering free services to all KDE-related projects. A few months ago, the amaroK devs were looking for a new server to host their website. Since I own a dedicated server, I offered them space to do so. A few weeks later Konversation was also looking for a server for www.konversation.org.
