KOffice Sprint is now Officially On

So, here I am now again at the KDAB offices in Berlin. Once again I'm meeting with Cyrille, Jan, Pierre, Johannes and many of the other KOffice hackers to discuss things about KOffice and get some hacking done. This time the topic is release planning: We want to make using KOffice 2.0 a good experience for the user even if it doesn't fulfill the whole potential of the new frameworks, just like KDE 4.0 didn't fulfill all the potential of the KDE4 frameworks.

To make it clear to our users what they can expect, we will have two parallel tracks here: a technical track that will try to pinpoint all the technical problems so they can be fixed, and a marketing track where we will try to formulate a consistent message about KOffice and KDE on the 3 main platforms: Unix, Windows and Macintosh. For some good thoughts about this, see Sebas' wonderful blog from yesterday.
