I think that the best way to start this project is to request an svn account and start working on playground. In KDE's svn server there is a folder named "playground" where we can put all our prototypes. I think this would be a good place to start. It's important that you start sharing the code from the beginning with the community so we can give you some help with that. Kevin and others can help a lot and there are a lot of Nokians around also that can help. But if you keep the code somewhere that we can't see it would be difficult to help... > - CMake doesn't support Symbian. We must use QMake for now. > > - Qt for S60 doesn't support QtDBus.

I know your company...there were some Tieto's workers on a project that I was working :) So please: put the code somewhere on svn and come to #plasma on freenode :) Welcome aboard ;) http://techbase.kde.org/Contribute/Get_a_SVN_Account Cheers, -------------------------------------------------------------- Artur Duque de Souza OpenBossa Research Labs INdT - Instituto Nokia de Tecnologia -------------------------------------------------------------- Blog: http://labs.morpheuz.eng.br/blog/ GPG: 0xDBEEAAC3 @ wwwkeys.pgp.net --------------------------------------------------------------
