Hi everyone, I'm announcing the project I've just spent this night on. Forgive me if this announcement sounds bad, one can't sleep and code at the same time, so I'm pretty tired now. ;-) WARNING: This is an early alpha version (a one-night hack), it is NOT ready for production use yet! See the "Is it stable?" question below. * What is Quarticurve? Quarticurve is a port of Red Hat's Bluecurve widget theme (taken out of redhat-artwork 7.0.0) to Qt 4. (I started from the Qt 3 theme.) This port is NOT endorsed or supported by Red Hat. * Where does the Quarticurve name come from? A contraction of "Quartic" and "curve". Where "curve" comes from should be pretty obvious, as for "Quartic", it contains 'Q', 't' and conveys the idea of '4'. :-) * What license is Quarticurve under? GPL version 2, just as Bluecurve. * Is it stable? Not yet. I don't know about crashes (though I can't exclude them), but there are definitely several rendering glitches needing to be fixed before this is really usable. * I want to test it anyway / send patches, where do I get it? http://www.tigen.org/kevin.kofler/pcprogs/quarticurve.7z (You need p7zip to extract the archive.) * What about the KDM theme? I'll consider porting that to KDE 4 once the Quarticurve widget theme works. * What about the icon theme? That should just need a few symlinks to work fine with KDE 4 (it has some of the needed symlinks already, mostly those required by the icon-naming-spec, but not all, especially those where the KDE 4 name is just the KDE 3 name with dashes instead of underscores), I plan to make a list of the needed symlinks and get that straight upstream into redhat-artwork. * Is this a contribution to the Fedora Project? This is Not a Contribution under the CLA, however it is Free Software under the GPL and can thus be packaged for Fedora like any other GPLed upstream project. (In fact, I plan to submit a package once the annoying rendering glitches are fixed.)
