the best christmas present that i got this year (ok, besides getting to spend it quietly with family) was being able to be offline for a number of days and, when i came back to find that plasma development had continued on with patches being reviewed, discussed, merged and committed. i have a lot more work to do to make the full plasma vision completely transparent and owned by as many others in the project as possible, but it's vastly relieving to know that the bus count for plasma is quantifiably higher than one. =)
thanks to everyone on the plasma team for a relatively guilt free 5 days of christmas.

How'd you like it down here in FL?
Btw, finally made the switch. I'm back on the Kubuntu train, and XP now resides in the depths of my HDD
Well, you deserved Aaron. You really deserved the time off
First of all, Welcome back =)

I just stumbled today upon some really beautiful KDE 4 mockups on kde-look.org. Do kde-devel people actually consider them?
Here's a Plasma-related one

And I'm looking forward for your comment on Canonical's decision not to LTS the next version of Kubuntu.
Anonymous, I am not a developer, but I follow the different discussions and the development towards KDE4. KDE 4.0 is only its initial release, offering all the stuff under the hood. The integration of the new technologies that will make things like those seen in the screenshots possible with the individual apps will start once 4.0 is out. 4.0 does not even include kdepim, features of which are of central importance for the mockup you linked. For such things to become reality, we simply have to wait. (Or produce the plasma applets that make this possible ourselves.)
You deserve it, dude. The new KDE plasma changes are awesome, and the hard work that has been put in is very apparent.
Thanks so much for being a part of what looks like the next big thing in computing.
you really deserved the rest aaron
plasma is absolutely amazing, you are a really talented person.
