But it depends if it's just slideshow or time based wp change as we saw before in Gnome. I was thinking about implemnting it to Plasma but after aseigo's review of the old one Gnome XML file I decided better not do it. Even aseigo is still waiting for implementation :) Just one thing - as Kevin pointed out - the extended slideshow wps should be in separate subpackage and the default package should be the single one due to live image space constraints. Especially for Plasma spin. Another important thing is - we need some simple designs. I really like Fedora designs as these aren't usually the boring abstract something like in other distros but today with Gnome Shell, the Plasma Netbook brother (I'm surprised how similar these two are, very nice for touchable netbooks) - the desktop now serves for activities (both Shell and Plasma ones). The Plasma Active is going to be even more using the desktop... So this is something you, as Design team should consider. But still I hope we can have amazing designs, not just colorful spits :) Thanks Jaroslav > Is this okay? > > Thanks, > ~m > > (As a favor to me, I'd appreciate it very much if you could keep me on > the CC of replies :) ) > > _______________________________________________ > kde mailing list > kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde > New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org -- Jaroslav ÅeznÃk <jreznik@xxxxxxxxxx> Software Engineer - Base Operating Systems Brno Office: +420 532 294 275 Mobile: +420 602 797 774 Red Hat, Inc. http://cz.redhat.com/ _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
