Last weekend Orcan Ogetbil finished the review on rekonq (thanks again!). rekonq is a new web browser designed for KDE. It’s small, light-weight, built with Qt and based on WebKit. Here’s a screenshot:
Currently it’s queued for -testing for F-10 [1] and F-11 [2] and can be installed from rawhide right away. Just a simple “yum [...]
Thanks to the Fedora KDE SIG, KDE 4.3.1 is now located in updates. That means that you can use your favorite package manager to update to the latest version of KDE. This version of KDE brings us many improvements in the kdepim section, many Kmail bugs have been fixed. To see what’s new in KDE [...]
If you would like to see more of KDE in Fedora then give Kevin Kofler a vote at the FESCo Elections.
Do you want the KDE SIG to be represented in FESCo? Do you want KDE to get
treated as a first-class citizen in Fedora? Do you want to stop the
misleading abuse of the word “desktop” to [...]
Does your grub either look like this:

Installing it was fairly easy. You just have to make sure that you’ve got the kde-redhat repositories installed and that the [...]

Usually I’m not fond of posting blog entry’s so close to each other, although nicu has kindly pointed out to me that there is an official Fedora countdown counter (https://fedoraproject.org/en/counter). I didn’t realize it existed until it got pointed out (well I knew about it, although my enthusiasm beat me to it). He also pointed [...]
I just got a little bored and I decided to make myself a little bit more useful by creating a Fedora 11 countdown counter. Just for the heck of it. =)
It’s a small script that counts towards the (current) official release date of Fedora 11, 05-29-2009. It’s written in PHP and uses a customized version [...]
